Book excerpt: The early post-war decades witnessed a national reconstruction drive of unprecedented vigour - a revolution in architecture and building, whose uncompromising modern monuments still dominate Scottish towns and cities. This book, drawing on a series of national symposia and exhibitions staged by DOCOMOMO (Documentation and Conservation of the Modern Movement) and other key organizations, presents an introductory reassessment of a quarter-century of vigorous, but until recently misunderstood transformation of Scotland's built environment.
