Coles Architecture of Knowledge: A History of The University of Manchester and Its Buildings at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Architecture of Knowledge presents, for the first time, a campus history of The University of Manchester.
Beginning in the early nineteenth century, the book tells the story of how a handful of small, city-centre buildings expanded to become two large, distinct campuses. It charts the creation of the huge campus on Oxford Road, a marker of the city’s reinvention in the twenty-first century.
The book explores the architecture of over fifty key buildings – from the Victorian grandeur of Whitworth Hall to the cutting-edge design of the National Graphene Institute – that have been home to an amazing breadth of research, as well as supporting the teaching of thousands of students.
Lavishly illustrated with architectural elevations, perspective paintings, technical drawings, old campus masterplans and historical photographs, Architecture of Knowledge is the definitive guide to one of the world’s most important universities.
