All Over the Map is an urgent response to the radical changes in
contemporary architecture and the built environment witnessed in
the twenty-first century. Characteristically polemic, incisive and
energetic, these essays explore pressing questions of architectural
and urban design, and critical issues of public space and
participation. From New York to New Orleans, the Amazon to
Jerusalem, Sorkin brings a critical eye to bear on a sweeping range
of subjects. Whether castigating the sorry performance of the
architectural avant-garde, considering the nature of place in
globalized culture, or providing mock instructions for entering a
high-security environment, these writings make a powerful and
provocative case for architecture and urban design to re-engage
with the lives and societies from which they have become
increasingly detached.
