This is a great book based on the life of a student of architecture who has been expelled fm a school of architecture just bcoz he made the designs which were completely new and not of that based on traditional concepts.those designs were not liked by the teachers.however he had deep belief in himself that whatever he did was right.the book opens up a new way of thinking in the field of Architecture.the book is a bit philosphical but a must read for everyone especially those who r related to field of Architecture .
The Fountainhead-Rand Ayn
I've been meaning to read this. Although I think Rand's philosophy is overly idealistic and highly flawed, her stories are always a good read. Have your read Atlas Shrugged?
I don't know why, but I always thought that Ayn Rand's novels would be incredibly boring. However, I finally broke down and decided to give Fountainhead a try. What a great decision! Fountainhead is very easy and enjoyable to read. You don't need to love architecture to enjoy the novel, just like well written novels with excellent character and plot development. I can't wait to start Atlas Shrugged.
