Reissued In a New Format, with a new introductory essay by Paul Barolsky (University of Virginia) and an expanded portfolio of illustrations compiled by Henry Hope Reed, who wrote the foreword to the book when it was reprinted more than a quarter-century ago, The Architecture of Humanism remains, as Barolsky writes, "one of the classics in the modern literature on architecture. A book that defines critical issues in our understanding of architecture, Scott's study has had a significant impact on thinking about architecture throughout the twentieth century .... (It) is as challenging a book today as it was when first published nearly a century ago. It endures as a classic of clear and artful writing about architecture in the tradition of Ruskin .... Scott endures, above all, as an aesthetic critic, who draws us back to the reasons why we care about architecture in the first place." It is recommended reading for all students of architecture and art history, and essential for everyone interested in the revival of classical architecture.

" Richard Nickel, whom I had the delight of knowing during his all too brief life, is one of the unsung heroes of Chicago architecture. He was not an architect himself, nor a designer. He simply took pictures, but what pictures! He was, for want of a better description, one of the most sensitive of architectural photographers. More than that, his life— and ironically, tragically and poetically, his death— were fused to Chicago architecture. How he died tells us how he lived: for the beauty in the works of Sullivan, Wright and the others. His story is one that must be told." — Studs Terkel, author " He was completely understanding of architecture and genius and of the quality of the work he was dealing with. He was single-minded in his pursuit and dedication to quality in history, art and architecture. That is an increasingly rare quality." — Ada Louise Huxtable, former New York Times architecture critic " Richard was an excellent photographer— sensitive and intelligent, and a very good craftsman" . — John Szarkowski, former Director, Photography, Museum of Modern Art, New York " Richard Nickel was one of those who saw architecture, and who passionately and skillfully pursued its portrayal. He was one of a very small number, and to make his work known would be a fundamental service to architects, students, and teachers as well as to the art of architecture." — Edgar Kaufmann, Jr.
