Summary:
In response to the contentious process surrounding the selection of a design for the World Trade Center site, the use of spectacular buildings to brand cities and institutions, and the dizzying transformations of the skylines of Shanghai and Dubai, public awareness of architecture and design has perhaps never been higher.

Summary:
In response to the contentious process surrounding the selection of a design for the World Trade Center site, the use of spectacular buildings to brand cities and institutions, and the dizzying transformations of the skylines of Shanghai and Dubai, public awareness of architecture and design has perhaps never been higher. At the same time, architecture itself is undergoing an identity crisis as it confronts fundamental issues: the effect of digital technology on design, the pervasive impact of global capitalism, and whether to embrace or resist popular media and taste. The New Architectural Pragmatism collects the most provocative, penetrating, and influential attempts by leading theorists and practitioners in the field to define what architectural practice should be at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Written in the aftermath of modernism’s utopian impulse and postmodernism’s detached playfulness, the essays gathered here express and critique a new spirit of cultural and political engagement with contemporary society. Interrogating the architect’s social responsibility, the contributors deliberate about how much we should ask of architecture and suggest that in the coming century, architecture must be at once flexible and robust, responsive and self-directed.

Summary:
In "Campus and the city", experts present and comment on current trends in campus design world-wide. Details of thirty outstanding campuses - be these inner-city, greenfield, high-tech or corportate - shed light on possible future trends and how these relate to the urban context. Restructuring outdated postwar campuses and establishing new university and commercial districts, especially in emerging Asian nations, requires fresh approaches and a clear vision of spatial and programmatic interrelationships. In addition, corporations and academic institutions alike are increasingly seeking strategies capable of encouraging innovation and synergy in their research centres, often drawing on the existing potential of their surroundings. This volume addresses important aspects of new conceptions of the campus - ranging from forms of spatial organisation that promote internal knowledge and social interaction to different types of urban design strategies aimed at creating sustainable centres of knowledge and learning that are responsive to society's ever changing demands.
