"Few books of the twentieth century draw as much attention as Le Corbusier's Vers Une Architecture (1923), published in English as Towards a New Architecture (1927). Its slogans and juxtapositions of temples with machines inspired architects to design housing that met the demands of modern life. This new translation preserves the design and voice of the original. A revealing introduction - including discoveries regarding Le Corbusier's manipulation of images - explains how the renowned architect assembled his essay and illuminates the reception of his impassioned views."--BOOK JACKET

"Les villes modernes sont menacées d'asphyxie. Les poussières industrielles, la densité de la circulation automobile, la fatigue consécutive à leurs disproportions les rendent peu habitables. Seule une refonte d'ensemble évitera que l'existence y devienne bientôt impossible. Dans "Manière de penser l'urbanisme", le grand architecte et urbaniste Le Corbusier aborde le probléme de front. Il indique les moyens de transformer nos rues inhospitalières, d'aménager de zones de stationnement et des espaces verts, remédier à la crise endémique de logement. Il précise les conditions nécessaires à l'établissement de cités radieuses où, renouant avec la joie de vivre, puisse s'épanouir l'homme contemporain
