(...) [T]he chapters Elements and Materials are a nice take on architectural history and will offer valuable information for non professionals! I see this book as an encyclopaedia to get basic information on various topics. But the very short chapters are really just a starting point.

That is exactly what you get, in the best possible way."u003c/iu003e - u003cbu003eGoodreads revieweru003c/bu003eu003cbru003eu003cbru003eOther books in 'The Short Story of...' series include u003ciu003eThe Short Story of Art, The Short Story of Photography, The Short Story of Film u003c/iu003eand u003ciu003eThe Short Story of Modern Art.u003c/iu003e
