4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Book, April 7, 2008
This review is from: The Professional Practice of Architectural Detailing (Hardcover)
This book has some valuable information in it regarding architectural drawings. It is somewhat lacking in the fact that it is a bit dated and does not include much information about computer aided design, but this can be overlooked.
