Architecture Must Burn

This is perhaps one of the most influential books I read during my first thesis experience (gotta find my bilbiography and post it so as not to misplace it in the future). Of course the title is rather interesting. It has been three years since I last read this book but I do recall using quite a bit of information from it. The author is Aaron Betsky, director of the Netherlands Architecture Institute in Rotterdam.

***Another secret confession - I was once an architecture major as an undergraduate. I loved the design and drawing but did not like the model building part. This was before the widespread use of Microstation, Form Z and Maya.
