In this highly acclaimed reference work David Watkin traces the history of western architecture from the earliest times in Mesopotamia and Egypt to the late twentieth century. For this seventh edition, revising author Owen Hopkins provides a new introduction contextualizing Watkin's approach. The final chapter on the twenty-first century has been completely rewritten with a global outlook and new entries on reuse, sustainability, neo-modernism and activism. Hopkins brings the story right up to date with a discussion of re-use, digital cities and virtual architecture.
