Review
"This lucid, if terse, summary of a large topic is an intelligent study by a lecturer in the Departrment of Architecture in the University of Cambridge. He clearly knows the college buildings inside out...he provides full bibliographical details and much unusual information....It is difficult to be free of prejudice when discussing post-war Cambridge buildings, many of them painful examples of the New Brutalism, but Nicholas Ray makes a valiant attempt." Times Literary Supplement
Book Description
This illustrated introduction to the architecture of Cambridge uses selected examples of buildings as the basis for an investigation into architecture itself, and is aimed at anyone interested in the history of architecture.
