The Taylorized Beauty of the Mechanical: Scientific Management and the Rise of Modernist Architecture - Princeton Studies in Cultural Sociology
Mauro F. Guillen
The dream of scientific management was a rationalized machine world where life would approach the perfection of an assembly line. Since its early twentieth-century peak, this dream has come to seem a dehumanizing nightmare. This book tells the story of the emergence of modernist architecture as a romance with the ideas of scientific management.
