A History of Building Construction, Engineering and Design

SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY. The following guide to books on the history of construction and building engineering bibliography is compiled by Bill Addis and based on the bibliography in his book: Building: 3000 years of design Engineering and Construction published by Phaidon in 2007. It was compiled in 2006 and will be updated was soon as practically possible.
