We’ve received emails from people just starting out or thinking of going into architecture asking for advice. It gets heavy sometimes. People who have been laid off in the recession have also written to share their stories. One architect I know told me without irony that he wishes he had read it before starting out on this path. — metropolismag.com
Metropolis Magazine's Susan Szenasy interviews Archinect's own Guy Horton about his recently published book The Real Architect’s Handbook: Things I Didn’t Learn in Architecture School.

i love that on amazon, folks who bought guy's book also bought harry frankfurt's 'on bullshit'
cool.
Guy Horton's book is awesome! but i think he forgot to include one chapter...The Struggles of an Unemployed GAIJIN in TOKYO! ahahaha Hit me up Guy if you're reading this! lol If you have any advice for me, your KING man! ahaha
That's funny about On Bullshit. We recommended that book in our book! How did Amazon know? Incidentally, Eric Owen Moss' mother-in-law, of all people, gave us a copy for Christmas the year it came out. I wonder if she gave Eric a copy. Hm.
As for Tokyo. I used to live there and I did a stint of unemployed time there, as well! Oh, the gaijin life!
