To paraphrase Marx and Engels, all that is solid has melted into air, all that was sacred has been profaned, and humanity is compelled to face with sober senses the real conditions of life, our relations with each other and this planet. First published nearly fifty years ago, this text handles its subject matter with precision and brevity; it is an excellent introduction to the fantastical reality of utopian life in the "New World".

Summary:
In The Possibility of an Absolute Architecture, Pier Vittorio Aureli proposes that a sharpened formal consciousness in architecture is a precondition for political, cultural, and social engagement with the city. Aureli revisits the work of four architects whose projects were advanced through the making of architectural form but whose concern was the city at large: Andrea Palladio, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Etienne-Louis Boullée, and Oswald Mathias Ungers. The work of these architects, Aureli argues, addressed the transformations of the modern city and its urban implications through the elaboration of specific and strategic architectural forms.

Summary:
The use of natural stone in international architecture has gained momentum in recent years owing to countless new buildings in Germany. These have not only been influential because they reveal the technical and constructive uses of the material, but also because they show stone as an element of architectural language. Examining current building projects of notable(...)

Summary:
The use of natural stone in international architecture has gained momentum in recent years owing to countless new buildings in Germany. These have not only been influential because they reveal the technical and constructive uses of the material, but also because they show stone as an element of architectural language. Examining current building projects of notable architects including gmp, Hans Kollhoff, Ortner – Ortner, I. M. Pei, O. M. Ungers and Gesine Weinmiller, this book presents new opportunities for using natural stone in architectural and also structural contexts.

While the first half of the 20th century in architecture was, to a large extent, characterized by innovations in aesthetics (accompanied by succinct and polemical manifestoes), the post-war decades saw emerge a more refined and intellectual disciplinary framework that eventually metamorphosed into the highly theory-focused moment of the 'postmodern'.

Summary:
While the first half of the 20th century in architecture was, to a large extent, characterized by innovations in aesthetics (accompanied by succinct and polemical manifestoes), the post-war decades saw emerge a more refined and intellectual disciplinary framework that eventually metamorphosed into the highly theory-focused moment of the 'postmodern'. Colin Frederick Rowe (1920 - 1999) was a leader of this epistemic shift due to his aptitude to connect his historical and philosophical erudition to the visual analysis of architecture. This book unites ten different perspectives from architects whose lives and ideas intersected with Rowe’s, including: Robert Maxwell, Anthony Vidler, Peter Eisenman, O. Mathias Ungers, Léon Krier, Rem Koolhaas, Alan Colquhoun, Robert Slutzky, Bernhard Hoesli and Bernard Tschumi.
