The book is structured in two thematic parts, The Nature and Practice of Architectural Research and Themes in the Architecture of Environment. It considers the relationship between the technologies of environment and wider historical and theoretical factors, with chapters on topics ranging from the origins of modern 'building science' in Renaissance England to technology and imagination in architecture. It includes numerous architectural examples from the renowned architects such as Christopher Wren, Peter Zumthor, Alvar Aalto, Robert Venturi and Carlo Scarpa.
