The result is an architectural biography of a fascinating city, and a fresh understanding of the use and purpose of Indian architectural theory over the last 300 years.Vibhuti Sachdev is an architect, the author of" Indian Architectural Theory "(1998), and a Research Fellow at the University of Sussex, U.K. Giles Tillotson is Senior Lecturer at SOAS, University of London, and the author of many books including "Mughal India "(1990).
