Book Reviews of The Works: Anatomy of a City

Book Review: "Look Inside..." - Seriously?
Summary: 2 Stars

This book looks great, but my criticism is for the LOOK INSIDE feature on Amazon. Note to the publisher - if you are going to block virtually every single image from the Look Inside preview, perhaps it is best to just not offer the option. It is very frustrating for the potential customer, particularly for such a graphics-based book. There are plenty of competitors that offer a generous preview through the site.
