Summary:

"In the rapidly changing profession of architecture, Thinking Practice, Reflections on architectural research and building work presents an examination of the increasingly dynamic relationships between academic research, teaching and practice. This book brings together a unique and diverse collection of writings by leading academics and theorists who are also practising architects. By exploring the interface between architectural practice, academic research and design teaching, Thinking Practice provides insight into a wide range of theoretical and philosophical ideas about the meaning of building in the twenty-first century."--Jacket
