This text traces developments in church building through the changes in architecture and theology in the late 19th and 20th centuries, and illustrates the broad spectrum of modern ecclesiastical architecture which has emerged as the synthesis of the pluralism which defined the turn of the century and the purity and clarity of the Modern Movement. Among the many architects featured are Auguste Perret, Rudolf Schwarz, Otto Bartning, Antoni Gaudi, Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Tadao Ando, Siren Architects, Philip Johnson, Mario Botta and Imre Makovecz. This is the fourth title in the "Builders" series.
