Architecture and the Landscape of Modernity in China before 1949 - Denison, Edward (University College London, UK)

This book explores China's encounter with architecture and modernity in the tumultuous epoch before Communism - an encounter that was mediated not by a singular notion of modernism emanating from the west, but that was uniquely multifarious, deriving from a variety of sources both from the west and, importantly, from the east.
