Great Buildings (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781605374994)

"Outstanding book in all respects...... Sensational pictures absolutely open eyes globally for all students. This book would certainly inspire students to learn more about the history and the wealth of information about people and places around the world. Now I must return to Brazil, mainly to Rio de Janeiro area to visit and tour the MAC! The building intrigues me. Information is brief but detailed enough to inspire students to research more of its history etc. This is a wonderful book for building engineering skills." - ITEEA
