Glorious Mud!

This book addresses many audiences. It will inform everyone interested in architecture--professional architects and laypersons alike--especially those intrigued with the possibilities of using materials and concepts for dwellings that will conserve the environment and its resources while meeting the burgeoning demand for efficient, low-cost shelter. It will also be a value to historians and anthropologists, who attempt to understand the development of architectural and vernacular structures and their political, economic, and cultural roles in societies through time.
