Jencks chronicles the trajectory of architectural thought from the exhausted conventions of Late Modernism through to the energetic, self-aware sensibility of Neo-Modernism, mapping the ideological and aesthetic shifts that redefined the built environment. With his characteristic blend of scholarly rigor and polemical wit, he illustrates how architects such as Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, and Peter Eisenman pushed beyond the dogmas of the International Style to produce a new architectural language rooted in complexity, fragmentation, and cultural pluralism. The text is richly supported by critical analysis and visual documentation, making it an essential reference for architects, designers, and students of cultural theory alike. Authoritative and intellectually provocative, it remains one of the defining texts for understanding the contested terrain of contemporary architectural identity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887861280987,"sku":"2026100006958-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/32e74ebb-ee32-4237-af40-74b0cf41c05e.png?v=1781747179","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006958-secondhand-the-new-moderns-from-late-to-neo-modernism","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
