Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Richard Ingersoll's <em>World Architecture: A Cross-Cultural History</em>, Second Edition, provides the most comprehensive and contemporary survey in the field. Each chapter within the text's chronological organization focuses on three unique architectural cultures, giving instructors the flexibility<br>to choose which traditions are the most relevant to their courses. The text also provides students with numerous pedagogical tools, including timelines, comparative maps, a glossary, and text boxes devoted to social factors and specific issues in technology and philosophy. The result is a<br>compendious method for understanding and appreciating the history, cultural significance, beauty, and diversity of architecture from around the world.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><br>I am overall very satisfied with the book, I have used other text books before and found them either too encyclopedic or too summarized. This book exhibits a great balance of in-depth information and overview. I would and have highly recommended it to colleagues. --Anne-Catrin Schultz, <em>Wentworth</em><br><em>Institute of Technology </em><p></p><br>This book offers a rigorous and multicultural understanding of the chronological time frame. It has a great value, especially in the way it historically addresses the importance of both vernacular and indigenous architectural production. <br>--Pasquale De Paola, <em>Louisiana Tech University</em><p></p><br><em>World Architecture</em>, Second Edition, is the first text to offer both the required global coverage and the rigor that I apply in the classroom. It allows me to teach the class along roughly chronological lines without imposing a western narrative on the entire history of architecture. <br> --Julia Walker, <em>Binghamton University</em><p></p><br><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><br><strong>Richard Ingersoll</strong> teaches courses in Renaissance and contemporary art, architecture, and urbanism at Syracuse University in Florence, Italy.<br>
