Résumé:

"The Masters of World Architecture Series focuses on renowned architects. Le Corbusier (Charles Edouard Jeanneret), founder of L'Espirit-Nouveau, the avant-garde magazine to which he contributed chiefly his ideas of town planning. His early work consisted mainly of individual villas, although his passionate interest was still city planning. His largest project to date is the city of Chandigarh, the new political capitol of Punjab, India. Over 80 pages of reproductions, including photographs and drawings." -- Amazon.
