Recensione

'This is a remarkable book, conceived in an original way and one which, so far as I know, has not previously been attempted.'
Sir John Summerson.

'This book should be an inspiration to all architects. . . (it) will become a classic in the history of conservation. . . a remarkable book. It must be studied.'
Sir Bernard Feilden

'Mainstone has been everywhere and seen everything. This is a book for architects, structural engineers and architectural historians - and also for anyone interested in the genesis of structural form.'
Architectural Research Quarterly

'It is a treat to have a second edition of such a treasured book.'
Tony Hunt, The Architectural Review

'No other single volume challenges this new edition of Mainstone as an informed and readable account of its fascinating subject.'
Construction History
