Rethinking Architecture by Neil Leach

This book brings together the core writings on architecture by key philosophers and cultural theorists of the twentieth century - the very best theoretical writings on the ideas which have shaped our cities and experiences of architecture.

"This book brings together for the first time the principal writings on architecture by many of the key philosophers and culutral theorists of the twentieth centuryThese essays contain some of the most insightful observations on contemporary architecture, and offer refreshingly original perspectives on the subject. Together they constitute a body of material which prompts the rethinking of many accepted tenets of architectural theory from a broader cultural perspective."Lonaard
