Summary:

"Vitruvius' De architectura is the embodiment of ancient architectural theory. Despite enduring interest in its content, the way in which the text was produced has never been comprehensively examined. In this book, Benjamin Thommen addresses this gap, examining Vitruvius' program of writing, the form of his writing and the structure it provides for the theory"--Publisher's website.
