The appendices also have guides to aid your reading comprehension to help you write descriptively, analytically, and disputationally and to show you citation styles and how to do library-based research. These primary source texts, which are central to your understanding of the discipline, were written by such architects as Le Corbusier, Robert Venturi, and Adrian Forty. He also introduces each chapter by highlighting key ideas and asking you a set of reflective questions so that you can hone your own theory, which is essential to both your success in the studio and your adaptability in the profession. Korydon Smith presents each common architectural subject-such as tectonics, use, and site-as though it were a conversation across history between theorists by providing you with the original text, a reflective text, and a philosophical text.
