Description

"The book examines the position of Le Corbusier's ideas within the intellectual life of the twentieth century. Richards observes, for example, that the lack of social facilities in post-war modernist housing may have been intentional - a possibility that has not been raised before. Richards also identifies for the first time close alignments in the thinking of Le Corbusier and such other intellectuals as Albert Camus and Georges Bataille."--Jacket.
