"Great book; needs better binding" according to K Williams. I bought this book for my education methods class before student teaching. I love the layout of the book, very attractive layout! Easier to read, since the text is not in the typical textbook format. The only problem with this book is the binding. The pages started falling out before I was through the first chapter. I took the book to Staples, and they spiral bound it for about $6.. Lux said This book was unbelievably insightful. As masters student in. This book was unbelievably insightful. As masters student in architecture working on my thesis I found it extremely helpful for classroom design and creative space design. I also greatly appreciated the strong graphics which showed there was a holistic design approach to the book in general..
