This review is from: University of Chicago: The Campus Guide (Paperback)
Princeton Architectural Press has finally produced a volume in this series up to the standards we expect from them. Past volumes have been plagued with problems: Lack of historical context, pompous and politically correct archispeak, mundane or incomplete photography, overemphasis of unrealized campus plans and lack of complete coverage. This iteration eliminates those problems and brings us a truly lovely survey of a beautiful university, with exceptional aerial and interior photography, insightful essays (without being written in "art-catalog arcane"), complete coverage of the grounds and neighborhood and an appropriate level of historical context. Lets hope that the series continues at this more rigorous standard.
