This book vividly illustrates the ways in which buildings designed by many of Germany's most celebrated twentieth-century architects, were embedded in widely held beliefs about the power of architecture to influence society. German Architecture for a Mass Audience also demonstrates the way in which these modernists ideas have been challenged and transformed, most recently in the rebuilding of central Berlin.
