The Anatomy of Architecture: Ontology and Metaphor in Batammaliba Architectural Expression

Rating:
Summary: For anyone with a serious interest in architecture
Review: This by far the best research I have read on the subject of architecture. Suzanne Blier takes a holistic and scholarly approach. The writing is clear with excellent references that have proven very helpful. The photography and illustrations are informative. Anyone with a serious interest in West African art, sociology, language, religion and architecture in general should read this book.
