Description
Reviews
'The Modern City Revisted, is a collection of studies that indicate that the position of documentation studies, archival work and theoretical sources based upon twentieth-century buildings and neighbourhoods is now well established ... For budding thesis students, the book also may be seen as the source for a valuable chase after research topics.' - Journal of Architectural Conservation
'The diversity inherent in such a collection is positive especially if the reader views the works as a spring board for further research rather than a definitive review of each subject. Deckker has successfully tied together a series of disparate and sometimes opposing texts into one useful and enjoyable book to read.' - Urban Design
'This edited volume represents an examination and re-evaluation of a varied selection of concepts and constructions of twentieth-century urbanism ... the book yields many nuggets of knowledge and insight which expand comprehension of the modern city. - Built Environment
