No other book offers extensive interviews with more than 60 of the master builders of modern times, and no other book comes packaged with a full-length compact disc, which lets us hear, in their own voices, renowned architects from Frank Lloyd Wright to I. M. Pei talking about the ideas and ideals behind their works. Complete with 200 photographs, plans, drawings, and models of the landmarks of modern architecture, this fascinating volume, says The Art Book, is "a splendid addition . . . it should be in any good architectural library."
Includes 72-minute audio CD. 200 black-and-white photographs, plans, and drawings, 9 x 111_4"
