Much of what he says about why he tried building in this way completely resonates with me. I also dig how he talks about structuring a practice as a architect-builder with a building yard. The social revolution bit is beautiful, and still sounds remotely plausible 30 years later. The scale of production is where his theory becomes something special but it would be nearly impossible to garner government support for such a process. As he clearly experienced and recorded.
A quick, enjoyable read. He organizes his thoughts very well, and is not afraid of documenting disappointments and failures as well as triumphs and inspirations.

This is the story of a project executed in Baja Mexico. It's part journal, part reflection. Very interesting if you're reading the others in the series, but not particularly informative on its own.
