The Experience of Modernism - Modern Architects and the Future City, 1928-53 (Paperback)

Making extensive use of information gained from in-depth interviews with architects active in the period between 1930-1959, the author provides a sympathetic understanding of the modern movement's architectural role in reshaping the fabric and structure of British metropolitan cities in the post-war period and traces the links between the experience of British modernists and the wider international modern movement. This book should be of interest to academics in architecture; urban design; urban geography; architecture of planning history; geography; sociology; practising architects; urban designers; and planners.
