About this title

Synopsis

Reviews

This exciting new book, which analyzes, criticizes, and strategizes contemporary cutting-edge design theories in the field of architecture, is probably the best book available on the complicated field of architectural theory of the past 30 years. Part of a series of books on critical pedagogy published by the University of Minnesota Press in an effort to make classroom teaching and learning worldwide an active rather than a passive process, this book is a gold mine of research and opinion. Feminism, ecology, deconstruction, critical theory (including critical pedagogy), and social design are all weighed with intelligence by accomplished academics. Recommended for academic libraries.?Peter S. Kaufman, Boston Architectural Ctr.
