Architecture and Mathematics from Antiquity to the Future:Volume II: The 1500s to the Future

Every age and every culture has relied on the incorporation of mathematics in their works of architecture to imbue the built environment with meaning and order. Mathematics is also central to the production of architecture, to its methods of measurement, fabrication and analysis. This two-volume edi...
