MODERN ARCHITECTURE
A Critical History Kenneth Frampton
FOURTH EDITION
"One of the most important works on modern architecture we have today." —Architectural Design
"A useful and wide-ranging work of superior architectural scholarship, this ambitious publication contains many chapters that stand on their own as perceptive essays; it is marked throughout by a consistently mature critical intelligence." — New York Review of Books
This acclaimed survey of modern architecture and its origins has become a classic since it first appeared in 1980. For the fourth edition Kenneth Frampton has added a major new section that explores the effects of globalization on architecture in recent years and examines the phenomenon of international celebrity architects who are increasingly
active all over the world.The bibliography has been updated and expanded, making this volume more complete and indispensable than ever.
Kenneth Frampton is Professor of Architecture at Columbia University.
