"This book offers a rigorous and multicultural understanding of the chronological time frame. It has a great value, especially in the way it historically addresses the importance of both vernacular and indigenous architectural production." --Pasquale De Paola, Louisiana Tech University"World Architecture, Second Edition, is the first text to offer both the required global coverage and the rigor that I apply in the classroom. It allows me to teach the class along roughly chronological lines without imposing a western narrative on the entire history of architecture." --Julia Walker, Binghamton University, "This book offers a rigorous and multicultural understanding of the chronological time frame. It has a great value, especially in the way it historically addresses the importance of both vernacular and indigenous architectural production." -- Pasquale De Paola, Louisiana Tech University"World Architecture, Second Edition, is the first text to offer both the required global coverage and the rigor that I apply in the classroom. It allows me to teach the class along roughly chronological lines without imposing a western narrative on the entire history of architecture." -- Julia Walker, Binghamton University, "I am overall very satisfied with the book, I have used other text books before and found them either too encyclopedic or too summarized. This book exhibits a great balance of in-depth information and overview. I would and have highly recommended it to colleagues." --Anne-Catrin Schultz, Wentworth Institute of Technology "This book offers a rigorous and multicultural understanding of the chronological time frame.

    The item was delivered really well but when I opened it I saw it was a different version of the book, the non slipcased version that was brand new. I then contacted the seller and they were apologized and offered to send the slipcased version in replacement of the one I received. I told them that wouldn’t be necessary because even at this price it was a good value! The seller was really kind and communicated really well!
