Outstanding,

This review is from: Brunelleschi: Studies of His Technology and Inventions (Dover Architecture) (Paperback)
Although i knew this book, it always surprises me. One of the best issues about it is that, although based upon a deep research, the author does not goes around issuing theories and opinions: when he is not sure about something, just declares it. Great for people tired of ego-based theories, and fond of reality.
