Kunstler: Mudslinger Or Expert?

"Depending on whom you ask, [Kunstler] is a breath of fresh air or a mudslinger, but everyone who knows his work acknowledges his power to wake up a crowd... Kunstler believes in an ordered universe full of hidden patterns and rhythms that civilizations render visible by producing lasting, well-proportioned architecture. "Neurologically, people have a need to feel oriented," he says, "to know where they are, not just in terms of a compass and not just in terms of geography, but in terms of their culture and history. To be informed about where they're coming from and to have some glimpse towards a hopeful future."
