Reviews

'…this book is a stellar effort, simply for brining visibility to the unsung women architects of India…it is a long overdue publication for a subject that has been left unattended for too long and as the author also hopes in her conclusion that perhaps this will trigger off more work and research into this area.' Anubha Kakroo, Insite Review
