This book presents an expansive overview of the development of
architectural and environmental research, with authoritative essays
spanning Dean Hawkes' impressive 50-year academic career. The book
considers the relationship between the technologies of the
environment and wider historical and theoretical factors, with
chapters on topics ranging from the origins of modern 'building
science' in Renaissance England to technology and imagination in
architecture. It includes numerous architectural examples from
renowned architects such as Christopher Wren, Peter Zumthor, Alvar
Aalto, Robert Venturi and Carlo Scarpa. Aimed at students,
scholars, and researchers in architecture and beyond, this
illustrated volume collates important and wide-ranging essays
tracing the definition, scope and methodologies of architectural
and environmental studies, with a foreword by Susannah Hagan.
