In bringing critical theory and Continental philosophy to bear upon architecture, it provides a solid framework for a fully up-to-date theory of architecture, one that reflects the latest developments and concerns. The book is divided into four sections-groundwork; constructing the "individual"; pluralities; instrumentality-each covering a core theme in contemporary architecture theory. In each section an introductory essay by Andrew Ballantyne provides valuable context, exposition, and analysis. This is followed by a selection of writings on architecture and other related cultural concerns from major contemporary thinkers, including Zvizvek, Irigaray, Lefebvre, Lyotard, Kristeva, Nancy, Virilio, Deleuze, and Negri.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>--Sanford Lakoff<br><br>--,<br><br>--Critical Inquiry- mentioning<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Andrew Ballantyne is Professor of Architecture at the University of Newcastle.
