Summary:

At the heart of this book is a simple and profound proposition: to 'do' architecture is to immerse oneself in a conflictual process of material production-participation is not a productive encounter of multiple practitioners and stakeholders, but a set of conflicts, negotiations, maneuvers, and swindles between and within a multiplicity of agents, human and nonhuman alike-equally including architects, clients, financiers, and builders, say, but also silicon, plastic, concrete, each with its conflicting aims and different material means to achieve them.
