Architecture is more than the geometry of space. It is also a product of the myths and archetypes of the culture which produced it. In this long out-of-print classic William Lethaby traces the history of ideas that found material expression in the great architectural masterpieces of the world - the soaring spires of St. Paul's Cathedral, the glowing domes of the Taj Mahal, and the sumptuous ornament of the Palace of Versailles.
