At last - here is a single volume authoritative history of Scottish architecture. This compact yet comprehensive account combines factual description of the vast and fertile range of visual forms and key architects in each period with a wide-ranging analysis of their social, ideological and historical context. As Scotland has often been closely involved with new trends in western architecture, this book highlights the interaction of Scottish developments with broader European and international movements. From the beginnings of the Renaissance in the 15th century right up to the 1990s ,this much-needed survey covers the entire post-medieval story in one volume.
Late 15th century to 1600 - the Scots renaissance; 1600-1680; 1680-1750 - from Bruce to William Adam; 1750-1820 - Robert Adam and the later 18th century; 1820-1840 neo-classicism and the early 19th century; 1840-1880; 1880-1914 - the search for order; 1914-1960 - "by the people, for the people"; 1960 to the present day - the crisis of modernity.
