Reviews of previous editions:
'There must be many well thumbed copies of the first edition of
this highly regarded book on the shelves of older members of EASA
because upon its first publication in 1982 it quickly established
itself as a standard work of reference and information. It keeps
its rightful place as a most readable and stimulating book and
anyone who aspires to a professional standard of excellence in the
field can hardly do without owning a copy.' - EASA Newsletter
'Bernard Feilden is a monument to conservation.'
John Fidler - The Architect's Journal
'Is it a book to buy? Definitely. It is an icon and a classic of
its kind; but more importantly, it is a true working book. Students
will use it to garner the essential knowledge they need, the
experienced professional will use it as an aide memoire.' - ASCHB
