384 pages chiefly illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm "Nothing Permanent is a nuanced intellectual history of architectural innovation in California between 1920 and 1970. It demonstrates how this prolific era of modern architecture was propelled by divergent views about the dynamic between interior and exterior, the idea of permanence, and the extent to which architects could exercise control over the inhabitants of their structures"-- Todd Cronan.
