Description

The first book on the history of architecture to expand beyond architecture of the western world, A Global History of Architecture transcends older models of architectural history. Instead of focusing on Egypt, Greece and Rome in that order, the book asks, for example, what was happening globally around the year 1000 AD and engages in a discussion of the connections, exchanges, contrasts and influences in the architecture and cultures of that time across the globe. Written by a stellar team of architectural educators, this richly illustrated reference features the unique drawings of Francis D. K. Ching as well as detailed photographs.
