Clean, very good condition without any missing pages or dog-ears. Used copy with the usual shelf wear, especially atedges. Binding is tight. No markings anywhere. Due to the binding method and materials used, the covers of Oppositions tend to develop slight oilcanning. This is not to be misconstrued as damage due to moisture.

This is an 8.5” x 9.75” perfect-bound softcover book with 122 pages profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs and diagrams. Oppositions was an architectural journal published by the MIT Press for the Institute forArchitecture and Urban Studies from 1973 to 1984. Many of the articles in thislegendary journal contributed to advancing architectural and urban theory and many of its contributors were or became highly distinguished practitioners of architecture. Twenty-six volumes (24 issues) were issued during the magazine’s eleven years of publication.
