A detailed description of his use of visual metaphor and analogy has been difficult to find in the critical literature. This article explains Le Corbusier's use of visual analogy and metaphor.

This article appears in TDSR volume XXI, II, 2010.
The abstract below is from the article:
This article seeks to evaluate Rem Koolhaas’s investigations of the sub-Saharan megapolis of Lagos, Nigeria.

Review: Richard Whitman, Architecture, Print Culture, And The Public Sphere In Eighteenth-Century France, Jean-François Bédard

Some of his arguments also tend to be simplistic or schematics .Nonetheless, this volume is a valuable contribution to the study of French architecture during the eighteenth century.
