A fantastic reference book for people wanting to learn about architecture. It gives you the basics, identifies key architectural elements and also analyzes descriptively various iconic buildings in the world.
I bought this book mainly to learn about architecture in hopes that I can add the proper terminology and descriptions to buildings in the books I write. And it definitely helped me a lot.
