N2  - In The story of post-modernism, Charles Jencks, the authority on post-modern architecture and culture, provides the defining account of post-modern architecture from its earliest roots in the early 60s to the present day. By breaking the narrative into seven distinct chapters, which are both chronological and overlapping, Jencks charts the ebb and flow of the movement, the peaks and troughs of different ideas and themes
