This work explores the life and works of one of the greatest architects of all time, whose work has inspired many and left a significant mark on the world. The author, Husain R. Banna, was captivated by this architect's work from a young age. The book is a comprehensive biography that originated as a summer research project for Husain, who became fascinated by Mimar Sinan (1489 - 1588). It includes 10 case studies of Sinan’s work, researched by the author during his two years living in Istanbul, Turkey. The 148-page, full-colour, hardback book features newly commissioned pictures and illustrations, and contains a foreword by Simon Allford, President of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), and Ian Ritchie, CBE, a prominent UK architect.
