Bruno Taut and the Architecture of Activism - Iain Boyd Whyte - Bog

This book explores Bruno Taut, a leading architectural theorist in Germany, and the modern architectural movement during the years 1914-1920. Dr Whyte suggests that many of the roots of modern architecture were mystical, irrational and political. The author also explores the failure of modern architecture to achieve its aim, which was to improve the physical and social condition of society.
