COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Facinating submitted by doctorfang on August 1, 2015, 9:04pm This is one of the most fascinating books I've ever read. It explores the differences between buildings that work, and why, and buildings that don't and why. Discovering how a given building changed over time also reveals information about how it was or wasn't working for its occupants. Highly recommended.
