Be Your Own Architect

Great book. Clear, solid information in an easy to understand format.

i was quite satisfied

architecture deals more with design and space and this book does the same.specifics about construction materials are not really in the domain of architecture.so i dont agree with the previous reviewer that the title is misleading.
