Yona Friedman: The Dilution of Architecture - University Of Minnesota Press 2010 - 320p. 17.78 x 2.03 x 25.4 cm

It traces the hidden history of architectural phenomenology, a movement that reflected a key turning point in the early phases of postmodernism and a legitimating source. It shows how architectural phenomenology radically transformed how architects engaged, theorized, and produced history. Otero-Pailos reveals how, ultimately, the rise of architectural phenomenology played a crucial double role in the rise of postmodernism, creating the antimodern specter of a historical consciousness and offering the modern notion of essential experience as the means to defeat it.
