Denys Lasdun: Architecture, City, Landscape

Lasdun is a unique figure who cannot be slotted into any ‘ism’. His work rests on a foundation of consistent principles and transcends passing fashions. At a time when discussions of modern architecture frequently resort to caricature, this is a well-documented and well-balanced assessment supplying invaluable insights into British architectural history of the past sixty years, and contributing to a much fuller understanding of the notion of a modern tradition.  Ex-library copy in very good condition with usual stamps
