I used this book to get more into detail about Roman architecture in general and the structures that were popular back then as well as explaining why they used this type of architecture and where it derived from.

This heavily illustrated survey text provides students of both art history and architecture with a worldwide introduction to the history of architecture that is comprehensive and yet accessible. The third edition continues to offer comprehensive coverage in an accessible manner with expanded pedagogy, added social and historical context, and extended coverage of African and Andean architecture, as well as modern designs by women and non-Western architects.
  • The material in this book is incredibly well collected and organized. Now, the reason for my dissappointemnt is in the quality of this book - I paid over $200 to receive this book NEW (disgustingly overpriced for a book of it's size - its ridiculous how pricey some textbooks can be) and the book I received was in very poor quality. The corners were bent, the cover was dirty and scratched beyond belief, and the pages were smudged with what appears to be graphite. I was unable to contact the seller to express my disappointment.

  • Great

  • I'm reading this book as requirement for a history class in an Architecture undergrad program. I'm sure most who will buy this book will read it for the same or a similar reason. I'm only through the first 1/4 of the book. It's full of pictures and descriptions of notable structures in a given time period and well organized chronologically. It seems the authors avoid drawing fully developed conclusions that explain the purpose for many early structures/dwellings. Maybe omitting this type of conjecture keeps things more factual. I get a dose of the "theories" in lectures on the subject, and that makes the reading much more interesting.

  • A large text comprising of great buildings and commentary on them. Was very enjoyable to have to read.

  • As described. Overpriced, but aren't all text books?

  • I got my list of books I needed for the upcoming semester and wondered how I could pay for all of it. This book cost much less than I could find it elsewhere for, even though it is used, I almost can't tell. It said it was in very good condition and it is. I have not used the book yet, but the book was in the exact condition the seller said it was, very reliable, and came quickly.

  • Wish it was cheaper but quality was great!

  • I read the previous review about how there are two versions of this book with two different titles and two different prices, but I just wanted to double check. I purchased both to double check and the reviews were correct.

    This book cost $85 and is paperback with no CD

    "A World History of Architecture" - 2nd edition is half the price and a hardback version.

    I skimmed the pages and it is the SAME EXACT BOOK down to the page numbers.
