Grab a highlighter and prepare your heart for The Great Jewish Mystery. The time has come to expose friends, family, and particularly our children to this mystery, which will eventually impact the world. The Middle East receives global coverage daily, yet this mysterious topic is never discussed. Worldwide conspiracies now exist to deny efforts that will uncover this mystery. Therefore, the three major religions?Judaism, Christianity, and Islam?can no longer sit on the sidelines and avoid tough questions from this book.

In addition, this Jewish mystery briefly combats the fallacies of...

Paul Virilio is an innovative figure in the study of architecture, space, and the city. Virilio for Architects primes readers for their first encounter with his crucial texts on some of the vital theoretical debates of the twenty-first century, including:

• Oblique Architecture and Bunker Archeology
• Critical Space and the Overexposed City
• The Ultracity and Very High Buildings
• Grey Ecology and Global Hypermovement

In exploring Virilio's most important architectural ideas and their impact, John Armitage traces his engagement...

Louis I. Kahn is widely known as an architect of powerful buildings. But although much has been said about his buildings, almost nothing has been written about Kahn as an unconventional teacher and philosopher whose influence on his students was far-reaching. Teaching was vitally important for Kahn, and through his Master's Class at the University of Pennsylvania, he exerted a significant effect on the future course of architectural practice and education.

This book is a critical, in-depth study of Kahn's philosophy of education and his unique pedagogy. It is the first extensive and...

Site and Composition examines design strategies and tactics in site making. It is concerned with the need for a renewed understanding of the site in the twenty-first century and the need for a critical position regarding the continued tendency to view the site as an isolated 'fragment' severed from its wider context.

The book argues revisiting the traditional instruments or means of both siting and composition in Architecture to explore their true potential in achieving connections between site and context. Through the various examples studied here it is suggested...

Ein klassischer Kurs uber die Gegenstande der Bauphysik: Warmeschutz Schallschutz Brandschutz erganzt durch zahlreiche Beispiele, Bilder und Tabellen. Das Buch bietet einen Uberblick zum derzeitigen Stand der Bauphysik, dargestellt auf den normativen Grundlagen der europaischen Normung. Die zweite Auflage wurde in Bezug auf Energiekennzahlen uberarbeitet und neu aufgesetzt.

Ein idealer Entwurf ist ortsspezifisch und ermoglicht nur so den Bau identitatsstiftender Architektur. Dies erfordert die Auseinandersetzung mit den baulichen und ortlichen Gegebenheiten. Das am Lehrstuhl von Dietmar Eberle entwickelte Methodenbuch bietet eine spielerische Moglichkeit, die komplexen Rahmenbedingungen systematisch zu erfassen und fur den eigenen Entwurf zu nutzen.
Die "Methode 9 x 9" bezieht alle relevanten Faktoren und ihre wechselweise Wirkung mit in die Betrachtung ein: Ort, Struktur, Hulle, Programm und Materialitat, die in einer Matrix mit diversen Kreuzungen exakt...

Architects today incorporate principles of sustainable design as a matter of necessity. But the challenge of unifying climate control and building functionality, of securing a managed environment within a natural setting--and combating the harsh forces of wind, water, and sun--presented a new set of obstacles to architects and engineers in the mid-twentieth century.

First published in 1963, Design with Climate was one of the most pioneering books in the field and remains an important reference for practitioners, teachers, and students, over fifty years later. In this book,...

An ideal design is site-specific, which is the only way architecture can create or connect with a specific sense of identity. This requires addressing the structural and local circumstances. This method handbook, developed at the Department of Architectural Design, offers a playful way in which to systematically ascertain a complex framework and use it for your own design.

The "9 x 9 method" takes all relevant factors and their alternate interaction into consideration: location, structure, shell, program, and materiality, all which, in a matrix with various intersections, produce...

Modern buildings are both wasteful machines that can be made more efficient and instruments of the massive, metropolitan system engendered by the power of high-quality fuels. A comprehensive method of environmental design must reconcile the techniques of efficient building design with the radical urban and economic reorganization that we face. Over the coming century, we will be challenged to return to the renewable resource base of the eighteenth-century city with the knowledge, technologies, and expectations of the twenty-first-century metropolis.

This book explores the...
