The Architecture Book I have been waiting for...,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Louis Kahn's Situated Modernism (Hardcover)
... although this IS a book about Kahn's architectural vision, it is so much more. It delves deeply into the science, philosophy and political and social movements that inspired him and left their mark indelibly on his architecture. This book is so much more then than just a book about buildings (although it does go into these as well); it is a substantial contribution to our understanding of a number of major movements of thought that defined a pivotal time in American and world history. Although I like pretty pictures of buildings as much as the next guy, I am grateful and indebted to Prof. Goldhagen for going beyond the norm.
