Summary

Please make the most of what you find in this volume, but please don't use it merely to achieve compliance. Use it to spark creativity, humanity and urbanity in the buildings and public spaces we all use every day, so nobody need feel this place isn't for me and everyone feels welcome.

The Access Manual Summary

The Access Manual: Auditing and Managing Inclusive Built Environments by A Sawyer

The Access Manual Reviews

Altogether this book is a fascinating read full of useful hints and ideas concerning access and the built environment. It is not a book to be read and discarded, but more a book for the office shlef, to be picked up and used time and again when the need arises or when a challenging aspect of access design needs addressing. Building Engineer
