Buildings Across Time brilliantly explores the essential attributes of architecture by uniquely combining both a detailed survey of Western architecture including Pre-Columbian America and an introduction to architecture from the Middle East India Russia China and Japan. Authors have searched out the stories these buildings have to tell considered the intentions of the people who built them and examined the lives of those who used them. The text contains extensive descriptive narrative leavened with focused critical analysis which both allows the book to stand alone and invites lecturers to impose their studied interpretations on the material without the danger of undue ambiguity or conflict. In a world that grows smaller by the day it presents a global perspective and in a discipline that concerns built objects that are often beautiful as well as functional it is copiously illustrated intelligently designed and consistently usable.
