A Shelter Sketchbook: Natural Building Solutions

This is an odd little book, but a very good one, filled with hundreds of ink drawings and with handwritten explanations of their meanings. It essentially describes architecture with a anthropologist's understanding of human motivations to build. It describes problems humans have had across cultures with their environment, and what they have built to solve these problems. I picked it up to learn some about basic architecture, and ended up learning a good deal more about...well, everything!
