Product Review Summary: No arrival yet after 1 month! I can't give a review of this book as it has not arrived yet. It was ordered Oct.8th from "customlov". You said it would take 5 to 10 bus days to arrive in Hawaii and so far nothing has come. We are really upset and will never ever use a 3rd party again. This service is unreliable. The book is for my architect husband and he has needed it for designing a home here in Kona and is at an extreme disadvantage without this book. Amazon should somehow correct this situation and rapidly.
Product Review Summary: Basic Book for Professionals This is intended for the professionals-engineers, architects, and other practicioners such as urban plannera and designers; only the most advanced "pontist" will find this of great interest.
More than a pontist needs to know in order to appreciate the aesthetics and the solving of construction problems that are found in the great numbr of albums and popular histories past and present.
