从清华园里的大礼堂、图书馆、科学馆和体育馆，到燕园的博雅塔和贝公楼，到南京的国民革命军阵亡将士公墓和金陵女子大学（今南京师范大学随园校区），到上海的复旦公学（今复旦大学）、大来大厦和圣玛利亚女校（张爱玲母校），到长沙的湘雅医院及医学院早期建筑，到福州的福州协和大学；从设计中山陵的吕彦直，到中国建筑师学会首任会长庄俊，从“大上海计划”主持人董大酉，到设计美琪大戏院的范文照；从清华周诒春校长、复旦公学李登辉校长、燕京大学司徒雷登校长，到孙科、孔祥熙、王正廷、宋子文和蒋介石，亨利·K. 茂飞不是美国历史上最伟大的建筑师，却是与中国渊源最深的一位。
茂飞在中国的二十年间，设计的建筑遍及大江南北，尤其以校园建筑和规划最为著名。他参与制定的建设南京的《首都计划》受阻于战火，他成立的公司早已关门歇业，他设计的许多建筑已经几经沧桑。但是在五四运动开启的“中国文艺复兴”潮流中，这位外国建筑师提倡的“中国建筑的适应性”和“中国建筑的复兴”，无论在理论思辨还是在建筑实践中，都显示出了顽强的生命力，因为这不仅仅是建筑，而且是整个中国文化都要面对并且给出答案的问题。
【内容简介】
本书以民国时期的中国为中心，重点介绍了亨利·茂飞的建筑和城市规划。这位鲜为人知的美国建筑师最初于1914年来到中国为雅礼协会设计校园，但后来他发现自己被持续二十年的专业和文化挑战所吸引：如何保护中国丰富的建筑传统，同时使用最新的西方技术设计新建筑。茂飞的建筑是一种妥协——他曾称之为“旧瓶装新酒”——本书从这些“瓶子”的视角出发，理解茂飞为自己在中国的建筑找到一个中间地带的追求，同时也审视了一个未来难以预料的动荡社会。茂飞建筑的意义不仅局限于美学或技术，它们无意中成为一种政治象征，因为中国的统治者，如蒋介石和孙科，都要求他提供城市规划建议，以满足他们对城市改造的期望。
针对20世纪非西方背景下执业的西方建筑师的严肃研究很少，少数出版的相关著作主要集中在英国、法国或荷兰的殖民地建筑上。因此，该书对美国和中国的建筑史领域都有重大贡献。
