"Louis Kahn is considered by many to be the greatest modern American architect. His design for the Jewish Community center in New Jersey, which he began in 1955, epitomizes the esential forms for which Kahn is known. The Trenton Bath House, the best-known component of the project, embodies a simple scale and program that shows Kahn's work at its most elemental.
This book explores not only the formal aspects of the building, but also the political history of its construction, the social issues of suburbanization and the post-World War II Jewish community, and Kahn's personal relationship with his Jewish heritage."--BOOK JACKET.
