Editorial Reviews
Review
' ... a highly recommended, galvanizing, and very significant contribution to architectural theory.' Journal of Environmental Psychology
'No doubt the book will create controversy and attract criticism. but this is a function of its great importance for the development of theory in architectural and urban studies, in which it will open up whole new areas of debate and investigation.' Architects' Journal
'My welcoming of this long-awaited book has at least two sources. First, it is a big step in attempts to develop a truly theoretical discourse on built form, and secondly, it represents a substantial groundwork towards an intelligent understanding of the social nature of binding and urban spaces. The incredible shallowness of much of design criticism can and should now be tackled with a much richer tool box than before.' Design Research
