Sommario/riassunto |
|
... it gives me great pleasure to support the first ever publication to specifically address the area of research, and in particular its relationship with practice, in the discipline of architectural technology...not only ground breaking because it is the first book of its kind, but also because it provides at long last one of the accepted foundations needed to underpin the emerging academic discipline, namely a recognised research base.CIAT, in supporting this publication, is aware of the need for books such as this to sustain the process of research informed practice, as an ai |
