American architecture generally conjures up great names like Frank Lloyd Wright, Robert Venturi,Richard Meier, and Peter Eisenman.

This book presents the most important representatives of the new generation of architects and- in anintroductory essay- examines what contribution the United States has to make to international devel-opments in architecture today.
