AIArchitect "In my book rating systemBuy This Book, Borrow This Book, or Burn This BookProfessional Practice 101 merits a strong Buy. It's a good reference for young practitioners and people starting their own firms. And seasoned practitioners will appreciate its underlying thesis: the practice of architecture equals perpetual inquiry."
