Reviews
The book includes a diversity of topics that examine different aspects of architecture identifiable with Tomlinson's research: matters of construction, design, orders, architectural planning, but also identity, politics and the part architecture played in them, not only enriching our knowledge of specific sites and buildings, but also emphasising the value of architectural analysis.
