This book is a survey of traditional architectural forms by societies outside the Euro-American tradition. In order to provide a basic understanding of the cultural heritage defining these diverse groups, both vernacular and monumental works are discussed. Five broad topics - multiplicity and continuity in tradition; water, shelter, and food; purposes of architecture; planning and design; cultural values--are explored through theoretical discussions, nearly one hundred specific examples, and 251 illustrations.
