Now is the time to reassess its values. Historians Geraint Franklin and Elain Harwood discuss its background and key architects before celebrating Britain's finest examples. Individual entries are beautifully illustrated, many with new photography, including the SIS Building made famous by James Bond, John Outram’s awe-inspiring pumping station in London's Docklands and Judge Institute in Cambridge, and the late works of James Stirling and Michael Wilford, including No.1 Poultry – an extraordinary corner of the City that in 2016 became England’s youngest listed building.Geraint Franklin is an architectural historian from Historic England. He is the author of a forthcoming book on the firm Howell Killick Partridge \u0026amp; Amis. It will be published in June 2017 in collaboration with RIBA and the Twentieth Century Society. || \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eElain Harwood\u003c\/b\u003e is a historian with Historic England, and author of \u003ci\u003eSpace Hope and Brutalism, England’s Post-War Listed Buildings\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eArt Deco Britain\u003c\/i\u003e.
