′A thoroughly readable guide to the profession, outlining the architect′s duties to client and contractor, some key apstects to the running of a building contracts and principles which might usefully be applied to the day–to–day management of a young practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Architecture student should have a copy., 15 Mar 2001
This book is an excellent read. Provides and absolutely excellent generalisation of the job of an Architect and his/her day-to-day duties. This book is one that offers advise rather than tells you the right from wrong and touches upon the main points of the aspects of the Architects job and the people he/she will work with without snowing you under with technical information. This is a book that EVERY Architecture student or new Architect could make great use of. I'm an Architecture student and it's probably the most useful book I have read in my time at university.
