Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information
Fully-searchable throughout, browsable by theme, or accessible through interactive features such as the visual timeline and world map, the content includes introductory guidance as well as in-depth research – making the Bloomsbury Architecture Library an essential resource for academics and students concerned with the history, theory, and practice of architecture.
The Bloomsbury Architecture Library consists of two separate collections, the Core Collection and Architecture Design & Practice Online, available for separate purchase.
