The buildings found in the book are presented with a profile, a critical text, photographs and, depending on their complexity and different characteristics, drawings of the architecture. The guide's 280 pages also have room for presentations and justifications, tips for use, bibliographical references, indices and maps." Maria Ana Ventura, in Revista UP - Julho 2013
