"Content, like his (Rem Koolhaas) buildings, is rather more than data - it's a narrative retrovirus designed to inject an alt.( )..an easily consumed dude-polemic, rather like his sardonic declaration that mankind has entered its terminal condition-shopping. But the discourse can't just be wolfed down like a doner kebab, after all; it resists simple digestion, because it is packed with overlapping subjects and event horizons." The Independent, London United Kingdom
beautiful--its own "content" is to architecture as "beach culture" was to culture--layered and informative. well done! fletcher maffett United States
culture for all, why don't you have a spanish edition, you talk about us but not to us. carlo Chile
comment: its mostly nailed stuff, with a lot of hybris and doing "i am an architectural hero". most of this i useless for thinking a bit deeper. nothing really worth its price. bezel zuti Botswana
"Desde la arquitectura y a través de un ambivalente personaje (Koolhaas) sugiere que es necesario dar la vuelta a todo, desmontarlo, volver a pensarlo y retorcerlo para encontrar su valor auténtico (y seguramente efímero) sentido entre el barullo que nos rodea." Summa, Buenos Aires Argentina
"Content is a huge and lively publication from Rem Koolhaas and his collaborators at the Office for Metropolitan Architecture. The essays web world economics, history, urban facts and recent shifts in global politics with OMA's building projects. The result is a colorful core sample of the present. His prose is bombastic and exciting and there is humor running through the whole book." Terminalcity.ca, Vancouver Canada
"Content [is] a 544-page monograph/magazine by turns Delphic, comic, opaque, and pornographic." I.D., New York United States
"Koolhaas ha publicado este año un libro con TASCHEN, Content, quizás el más incisivo y militante de los manifiestos que ha presentado desde su OMA". La Vanguardia, Barcelona Spain
"A casual appearance, yet full of information, this is the catalogue of the exhibition 'Content' which began in Berlin and is still running in other major cities. The surprising cover shows politicians in a costume drama, the book goes on to show Koolhaas' amazing talent and unusual perceptions, and even its reasonable price" Studio Voice, Tokyo Japan
"A maelstrom of information and ideas." Jackson Free Press, Jackson United States
