520 8  Glass has long transformed the architectural landscape. 
       From the Crystal Palace through to the towering glass 
       spires of today's cities, few architectural materials have
       held such immense symbolic resonance in the modern era. 
       'The Age of Glass' explores the cultural and technological
       ascension of glass in modern and contemporary 
       architecture. Showing how the use of glass is driven as 
       much by changing cultural concerns as it is by 
       developments in technology and style, it traces the richly
       interwoven material, symbolic, and ideological histories 
       of glass to show how it has produced and dispersed meaning
       in architecture over the past two centuries. The book's 
       chapters focus on key moments within the modern history of
       architecture, moments when glass came to the forefront of 
       architectural thought, and which illustrate how glass has 
       been used at different times to project different cultural
       ideas.
