Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Cambridge, Massachusetts: The MIT Press / Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994. Very Good+. Condition would be FINE but for a small surface scrape on front cover. The spine is square and flat. NO creases. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a remainder. Pages are fresh and crisp -- probably never read. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. First MIT Press Paperback edition (so stated). Large Softcover. 7" wide by 11" tall. Illustrated with photos and drawings throughout. From the rear cover: "Robert Mark plumbs the mystery of the great buildings of ancient Rome, the High Gothic era, and the Renaissance, revealing the astonishing depth of knowledge the ancient builders possessed. His findings provide a stronger technological focus for architectural history and a basis for more rational criticism of contemporary design." "Guided by a sleuth's compulsion, Mark has left no stone unturned to explain how the Pantheon and Hagia Sophia domes really work, how and why the French Gothic cathedrals evolved, the subtlety of the design of St. Paul's Cathedral, and the variety of more or less correctly designed high-rise structures of our time. This book should be carefully read." -- Mario Salvadori, ARCHITECTURE. "Students of architecture and the history of art, as well as architects, can benefit from this book - one of the most objective historical accounts of structure and form we are likely to find." -- Philip Arcidi, PROGRESSIVE ARCHITECTURE. . First Softcover Edition. Softcover. Very Good+ condition. xvii, 209pp. …

Descripción de la tienda

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
