After several pages of prologue summing up 18th century highlights especially the rise in importance of geometry some forty pages cover 17841916, focusing on the heavily fenestrated highrises of the Chicago School and the iron and glass pavilions of Europe. The chapter spanning 18921925 concentrates on the many disputes over the trajectory of modernism: Nieuwe Kunst, Stile Liberty, Jugendstil, and Art Nouveau, all arguing the direction that the boom of prisons, hospitals, schools, town halls, and other institutional buildings would take. Three more time divisions follow and a concise compendium of architect biographies ends the volume. Along with an array of great pictures (par for Taschen), Gssel and LeuthSuser both active in the private sector add a strong prose style attentive to debates among architects and the socioeconomic stage on which architects act.
