Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "To Al, Friendship and respect Bob Venturi." FineÂin a near fine dust jacket with a touch of shelfwear. As Venturi's "gentle manifesto for a nonstraightforward architecture," Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture expresses in the most compelling and original terms the postmodern rebellion against the purism of modernism. Three hundred and fifty architectural photographs serve as historical comparisons and illuminate the author's ideas on creating and experiencing architecture" (The New York Times).
