GK suggested “
The Universal Traveller – Koberg/Bagnall (creativity … the process of reaching goals).” With which I agree wholeheartedly, especially the one pager on how to give a critique: describe the approach (for simpatico), praise the best bits, critique the worst bits, show how the best can fix the worst. Was a big hit in the late 70’s, but not for Neville Quarry.
SF suggested: “Further to your reading list, I still have a copy of a prescribed text from my first year of Architecture at Melbourne Uni in 1971 – The Honeywood File by H.B. Creswell … a fictionalised account of an architectural commission that goes wrong, along with lessons on how (or how not) to communicate with a client and builder while administering a formal contract.” A shout out to Peter McCallum who taught legions of students in Sydney with this book. “You administer, you don’t supervise”.
