Summary:"The region of Palestine--today's Israel--presents an especially significant example of the internationalization of modern European architecture from the 1920s through the 1940s. The book examines the boom experienced by architectural modernism in what was then the British Mandate territory, with particular emphasis on the underlying processes of transmission that were at work. Its authors investigate the techniques, structures and individuals who made the transfer of architectural knowledge possible"--Page [4] of cover.
