From ancient structures through the millennia of built environments worldwide, Architecture is Elementary is revised after twenty years in print. Winters updates his classic book on the foundation of architecture through discussions of the world's tallest buildings and landscape design, with emphasis on designing and reclaiming green spaces in metropolitan areas.

Already awarded for its unique illustrations in both number and quality, the book features fifty new illustrations of recent and planned buildings. The original edition was voted one of the top 20 on architecture by the National Librarians Association.

The new layout, new lesson materials, and current examples of future thinking in the world of architecture make this a must-have for every serious teacher, student and practitioner of architecture.
