Wood has unique qualities, yet is undervalued or ignored in histories of architecture. However, leading designers around the world are increasingly drawn to it to satisfy social and environmental needs. This title shows how the wooden heritage of Japan grew from its Buddhist history; how Russia's carpenters determined its iconic domes; and more.
