Aa Survey of Their Architecture and Design
Publication Date: 21/04/1999
From vast asylums to cottage hospitals, this book offers a broad perspective on almost three centuries of hospital architecture and design. Many hosptial buildings are important works of architecture; they also reflect the prevailing attitudes to illness and social welfare at the time of their construction. Since 1948, when the National Health Service inherited all existing hospital buildings, modernization and centralization has brought about the closure or demolition of many of these buildings.
