 h Christophe van Gerrewey\, conducted by Sandrine Perroud\, is available 
 on the EPFL website.\n\nFrom the back cover:\n\n“The activities of Rem K
 oolhaas and his numerous collaborators have been widely discussed\, even b
 efore the foundation of the office for Metropolitan Architecture in 1975.
  The work of OMA\, including Koolhaas’s’ written oeuvre\, is at the ro
 ot of an important part of the Western discourse on architecture from the 
 past half century. \n \nThis book compiles about 150 texts – interview
 s\, essays\, articles\, petition reports – that in many cases have been 
 translated for the first time. As a reader covering the work of OMA/Rem Ko
 olhaas from Delirious New York to S\,M\,L\,XL\, it provides a fresh and
  critical view on one of the most complex architectural oeuvres of recent 
 times. At the same time\, the book presents an account of the debates on a
 rchitecture and the city that remain significative today.” \n\nimage:
