3.0 out of 5 stars 5 stars for the architect minus 2 stars for book
Mendes da Rocha is the most under-rated Architect of the 20th Century. Hopefully in the 21st Century comes a book worthly of his genius. This book comes with good photos but not enough analysis. In turn the book conveys little to the reader of Mendes da Rocha's depth of sympathy to the human condition which accompanies his great skill.
