This book provides a compelling and insightful portrait of ten female architects, artists, and designers who explored unique approaches to teaching, practice, and research in the post-industrial city of Detroit.

Recenzje

"In this provocative collection of essays by influential women architects and educators, the post-industrial challenges of Detroit, and innovative programs at the School of Architecture at the University of Detroit Mercy to engage them, are compellingly told. Throughout, critiques of, and much-needed changes to, the academy and profession, are illustrated, and a more hopeful, diverse, and inclusive future envisioned."
