Inspirations from France & Italy: 07M3A Book

For the most part I agree with McLennan. The book is in need of editing. There is some unnecessary repetition and passages that would be condensed, though I understand McLennan is an architect, not an author. Scholarship is lacking where citations are needed. In the early chapters McLennan cites "spicyquotes.com", a website that apparently no longer exists. Some points could be expanded where further research would have been beneficial. Nevertheless, this book is mandatory for anyone interested in design.

PS. The key concepts are summarized in appendices at the back of the book.
