Review # 1 was written on 2019-09-13 00:00:00 Wade Bare I truly believe this book helps you theorise and analyse how political and cultural movements define or create the aesthetics and the insensitivity or anaesthetics of art and architecture. My problem with this book is that I think I was hoping to find a more developed argument or maybe a theoretical thinking in which they would expose more than a global argument. It is true that this book does not focuses ONLY in Architecture, but also on the context and that is what I honestly enjoyed. The book did seem, however, a little redundant to me. Never the less, you do get to learn from the book (maybe more, maybe less… depends on how acquainted you are with the subject). It was recommended to me by BArch Thesis Advisor, and I can honestly say I did learn from the book despite what I said, it is a short book, easy to read, and altogether a good book. Finally, don't judge this book from my review. Buy it, read it (I'm sure you will learn from it), and develop your own argument.
