"Le Corbusier spent many years considering the ideal environment for the health and well-being of the children Who lived within his famous "Radiant City". ln this, his last work, the great architect and city planner shows how the all-important time spent at school can be spent in an atmosphere of light, greenery and sunshine, the best possible conditions for sound physical and mental development. Using over one hundred photographs and drawings, he sets out a detailed plan and programs which should serve as a guide to the schools of the future. The edition, the first in English, was designed and planned by Le Corbusier."
