Archnet-IJAR
Volume 2, Issue 1, March 2008
ArchNet-IJAR, the new online journal of architecture and urbanism, begins its second year on ArchNet with the publication of its first 2008 issue. The past year's efforts have been very successful; IJAR now boasts both a high readership and contributions from distinguished scholars and educators in the field.
In this first issue of 2008, several giants in architecture and human-environment interaction, joined by younger scholars, offer their thoughts and research. This multiplicity of views opens the way to a lively, complex debate on the built environment.
All issues of IJAR may be downloaded here from the Digital Library on ArchNet, or accessed via the IJAR Group Workspace.
