Telling the story of the early Team 10 thinking shifts the importance of the group from its better known projects of the 1960s and 70s to the theoretically vigorous period of the 1940s and 50s. This “other” story of the debates about the future of town planning reveals the ruptures and continuities between the CIAM generations and Team 10 members themselves, and reveals a more extensive critique of developing modern architecture at mid-century than has hitherto been recognized.

Idée-titre du dernier livre de l'architecte, cette formule fut diversement interprétée dans son concept. Cependant, sa célèbre allitération fait aussi entendre des bruits de végétaux en mouvement, feuilles et fleurs, ou flots : motifs qui constituent la base même des formulations ornementales dont Sullivan a été le grand inventeur. La formule apparut à la maturité de Sullivan (1896), mais l'Autobiographie montre qu'elle est née plus haut, dans les mille sources dont l'enfance est témoin. Et que sa poésie relève d'une expérience sensible du monde, entreprise par un garçon qui promena son imaginaire parmi les bois, les collines, les lacs du Massachussetts, et qu'il poursuivit dans la construction des villes.

For nearly three decades now, Steven Holl has developed his architectural stance and his reflections on architecture with striking consistency. The success of his work can be attributed to its sculptural shaping, his interest in the poetics of space, colour, light, and material, and his fascination with scientific phenomena. With essays by Jordi Safont-Tria, Sanford Kwinter, and Steven Holl that discuss various dimensions of temporality vis a vis processes of creation, utilizations, and perception in architecture.

It differs from other books on climate change principally in the way it is conceived as a visual reader that diliberately uses the effectiveness and power of the image to present the theme in a graphic way. Extensive series of images with large photographs and informative diagrams accompany well-researched essays on and around the themes of climate history, research and policy and thus offer an in-depth examination. The book provides insights into the history of the earth's climate and reveals the factors that are responsible for climate change. It poses questions and provides answers: why is the earth becoming warmer? What are the consequences we must reckon with? What can we do against this? Who determines the future?
