The format, while great for images and its appreciation, makes it difficult for a comfort reading possition. Also, I believe while excellent ideas, Venturi doesn't always express himself in the most adecuate way.

Finally I got a new copy of one of my favorite books in architecture theory. I lost my old one and was really happy to find it on the book market. A really great book about the complex issues and sometimes contradictory matters in architecture.
