Synopsis

Understanding Architecture is the first comprehensive introduction to architecture and architectural history. It explores the experience of architecture in relation to its history and the wider context of cultures, conservation, planning and environmental issues.

Review

A remarkable book of great value...a great introduction to questions in theory, history, environment/behaviour studies and cultural approaches to architecture. -- David G. Saile, University of Cincinnati

Inspiring! -- Anthea McCullough, Colchester Institute
