Lateness is a 2020 book written by the architect and theorist, Peter Eisenman in collaboration with Elisa Iturbe, who is a professor[ambiguous] of architecture at Yale School of Architecture. The book is edited by Sarah Whiting, the professor of architecture at Harvard University, and was published by Princeton University Press.[1] In it, Eisenman focuses on three figures to explain the quality of lateness:[clarification needed] Adolf Loos, Aldo Rossi and John Hejduk, each selected from a period of architecture in the 20th century.[2] Along with this, Eisenman and Iturbe discuss the origins of the critical theory illustrated in Critical theory of Frankfurt School.[3][4][5][6]
