Modern Architecture Through Case Studies 1945 to 1990

Reviews of Modern Architecture through Case Studies:
'Peter Blundell Jones has compiled a first rate selection of detailed case studies of modern architecture which should really be required reading for every student.'
The Architectural Review

'The use of case studies gives the subject a tangible feel providing a close link between theory and practice. The illustrations are well judged and plentiful, the text is both scholarly, accessible and, in places, contentious.'
RIBA Bookshops review

'The idea of discussing modern architecture through a series of specific built designs seems to me excellent and emphasises the tangible aspect of architecture. It does not prevent making linkages between ideas about buildings but focuses on the fact that most projects are realised in a particular place for a particular client by a particular architect. I am therefore extremely sympathetic to the assumption behind this book'
Professor Michael Brawne, Architect, ex-Professor of Architecture at the University of Bath, UK, and author of Architectural Thought and the Design Process.

'... what I have read is clear, direct, informative, scholarly, designerly and insightful ... I found it to be an optimistic book and therefore one which may have a positive role to play in enhancing the statue of modern architecture'.
Dr Julienne Hanson, Reader, Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London, UK
