Paperback. Zustand: Fair. When the late Spiro Kostof's A History of Architecture appeared in 1985, it was universally hailed as a masterpiece--one of the finest books on architecture ever written. Now, updated and expanded, this classic reference continues to bring to readers the full array of civilization's architectural achievements. Insightful, engagingly written and graced with close to a thousand superb illustrations, the Second Edition of this extraordinary volume offers a sweeping narrative that examines architecture as it reflects the social, economic, and technological aspects of human history. The scope of the book is astonishing. Kostof examines a surprisingly wide variety of man-made structures: prehistoric huts and the TVA, the pyramids of Giza and the Rome railway station, the ziggurat and the department store. Kostof considered every building worthy of attention, every structure a potential source of insight, whether it be prehistoric hunting camps at Terra Amata, or the caves at Lascaux with their magnificent paintings, or a twenty-story hotel on the Las Vegas Strip.

This is the updated and expanded second edition of Kostof's masterwork, originally published in 1985 to universal acclaim. A comprehensive and beautifully illustrated survey of architectural achievement across human civilization, examining how architecture reflects the social, economic, and technological aspects of history.

Kostof's insightful and engaging approach treats every building as worthy of attention, whether it be prehistoric hunting camps at Terra Amata, the caves at Lascaux with their magnificent paintings, or modern commercial architecture. A landmark reference work and essential reading for students, architects, historians, and anyone interested in the built environment and human civilization. Richard Tobias (illustrator).…
