The architecture of Alexandria and Egypt c.300 BC to AD 700
"The book approaches its subject at both the macro- and the micro-level: from city-planning, building-types, and design to architectural style. It addresses the interaction between the imported Greek and native Egyptian traditions; the relations between the architecture of Alexandria and other cities and towns of Egypt as well as the wider Mediterranean world; and Alexandria's role as a major centre of architectural innovation and artistic influence in the Late Antique and early Islamic periods."--Cover
