WHAT SHOULD I READ?
There are hundreds of worthwhile architecture books out there, but unfortunately a cursory Google search seems to lead you to the same fifty books. Below is list (in process) of books that I have read and consider to be regularly overlooked and should be seriously considered for your bookshelf.
