3.0 out of 5 stars
Inward-Looking,
By A Customer
This review is from: Behind the Postmodern Facade: Architectural Change in Late Twentieth-Century America (Hardcover)
The important thing to know is that the book is about changes in architecture as a profession, and in how architects view their work, not about changes in what buildings look like or how buildings function. If your interest is in why the big shiny towers in your city are so big and shiny, the most relevant chapter is "The Autonomous Transformation," which covers how design awards are given. It's a solidly researched book, but much is aimed at an inward-looking, specialized audience.
