Title: An awful source for architects!
Review: I was given this book as a gift, and thought I would enjoy seeing conventions used by other architects in a organized fashion. I am EXTREMELY DISSATISFIED with this book. The book is mostly boring text, littered with poor graphics and inaccurate information. While reading the book, it became quite obvious that the author is not from The United States - conventions were definitely foreign to this architect's eyes. Drawings have been reduced to fit the book such that they are now illegible blurs on a page (with annoying text right over top of them). Code information is wrong (the Texas plan reviewers will be thrilled to hear that Texas has no governing building code according to this text). Also, while this book is packed with related information I find it really suspect that not even one source was cited.Come-on what is this?!? I wouldn't force my worst enemy to read this.
