Customer Review: I bought this as a gift for someone. I flipped through the book before I wrapped it, and wish I had ordered one for myself. It is a very small book - about 4" X 6".
Customer Review: I purchased this book about two years ago and it has been worth every penny and more. I often just leave it on my desk for quick reference regardless of what stage in a project I'm in. I am currently a third year Architecture student and can see myself using this text well into my practice as some... more info
Customer Review: A magnificent book, which is indeed current to within the last year, including buildings such as `The birds nest' used in the Chinese Olympics and Toronto's ROM, but not their recently updated AGO.

How masterfully the author delves beneath... more info
Customer Review: A great reference book along with:
A Visual Dictionary of Architecture
