Summary "This study offers new perspectives and insights on American architecture but also tools through which to analyze architecture more broadly, foregrounding a revised history of architecture, reinterpreted through the lens of influence, and a revised history of influence, reinterpreted through architecture. Case studies feature work by Frank Lloyd Wright, Tod Williams and Billie Tsien, Mies van der Rohe, Frank Gehry, Peter Eisenman, Philip Johnson, Venturi and Scott Brown, and Kallmann, McKinnell and Wood, as well as less canonical figures such as Demetri Porphyrios, Julia Morgan, and Charles Moore"-- Provided by publisher
