2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great overview of the concept of ObsolescenceBy E.B.This is a small book - about 140 pages - that gives a concise overview of the concept of "obsolescence" in architecture; it touches upon its rise; fall; and complicated present. The book is easy to read without being over theoretical. I particularly enjoyed the authors coverage of the demolition of Bostons East End. However; the compactness of the book sometimes falls prey to simply being a laundry list of moments when obsolescence enters the public dialogue. The book could benefit from a few deeper descriptions of particular buildings or writings on the topic. That said; there are many points made that other scholars may find worthwhile to explore further. The bibliography at the end of the book is broad and provides good source material for further scholarly work.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. but the content was fantastic.
