Synopsis:
In a revised and updated version of his besteller, Charles Jencks brings readers up to date on the progress of many of the projects discussed. He also includes a number of new projects by some of today's most prominent architects. Over time, and based on many discussions with others, Jencks has formed a new conclusion of how Chaos Theory and Complexity Science are affecting architecture and the environment. Illustrated.
Review: A new paradigm is sweeping through science, changing both our view of the universe and of mankind. Charles Jencks is one of a handful of thinkers with the courage to embrace the emerging paradigm and interpret it architecturally. This inspired synthesis of art, design, science and philosophy charts a bold new course not only for architecture, but for Post-Modern thought. -- The publisher
