Description
First published in 1947, American Building argues that the task of architecture is to mediate between the often-unpredicatble forces of nature and the needs of human beings. Buildings that are `beautiful and good', the author states, `wrest the objective conditions for our optimal development and well-being from a Nature which only seldom provides them'.
