5.0 out of 5 stars Unique, it interests connoisseurs and "curious readers"
It is a comprehensive and intelligently presented review of A + P Smithson's numerous projects. Very useful for those who study architecture, it is also excellent for non experts, because the book gives another key to understanding contemporary Great Britain, through the eyes of very non conventional architects!

3.0 out of 5 stars Small black & white architectural monograph from Gustavo Gili, October 17, 2005
This review is from: Alison & Peter Smithson (Obras y Proyectos / Works and Projects) (Paperback)
ISBN: 8425216842 (Alison + Peter Smithson) ONLY is an exclusively black & white, concise, and copiously illustrated paperback survey published by Gustavo Gili (GG) of Barcelona in English and Spanish (side by side). A short introductory part on several pages is followed by the main review part presenting each shortly described project on excellent B&W photos, plans, sections, elevations, hard line presentation drawings, sketches, etc. At the end, there are several pages with additional information incl. biography. Most of hundreds of only B&W illustrations are technical, but all (incl. B&W photos) are of a good quality, well balanced, crisp and legible. Like all from the Works and Projects series, it is solid among architectural monographs, but slightly smaller than the Studio Paperback series published by Birkhäuser Verlag under ISBN: 37643* (Basel)/08176* (Boston) or Artemis Verlag under ISBN: 37608* (Zürich)/18740* (London).
