    Foucault for Architects ( May 2013)

    Foucault for Architects - From the mid-1960s onwards Michel Foucault has had a significant impact on diverse aspects of culture, knowledge and arts including architecture and its critical discourse. The implications for architecture have been wide-ranging. His archaeological and genealogical approaches to knowledge have transformed architectural history and theory, while his attitude to arts and esthetics led to a renewed focus on the avant-garde.

    Prepared by an architect, this book offers an excellent entry point into the remarkable work of Michel Foucault, and provides a focused introduction suitable for architects, urban designers, and students of architecture.

    The ‘Best Little Boy in the World’ Hypothesis in the New York Times

    A report from our journal Basic & Applied Social Psychology provided the basis for a touching article in the New York Times opinion pages recently. The 'Best Little Boy in the World' hypothesis refers to a possible behavioral patter observed in some young gay men who use high-achievement in educational, business and other fields as protection against the prejudice they encounter elsewhere.
