A phenomenon that evolved less than a century ago, the modern architecture described in this volume dates from the end of the First World War. Both world wars ravaged populations and environments alike, giving rise to the rapid rebuilding programmes in Europe and the proliferation of housing estates and tower blocks, but the availability of new materials and construction methods enabled architects globally to experiment in reconciling their individual idealised visions with the forces of post-industrial society.
