"Sources of architectural form is a comprehensive and critical history of Western architectural theory from the ancient world to the present day ... Mark Gelernter sets out the major design theories in eight chronological periods, conveying their flavour with contemporary quotations. Each theory is analysed for its strengths and weaknesses. Theories of education are also examined as many theorists from Vitruvius to Gropius included precepts for teaching as integral components of their ideas."--Back cover.
