Consider Brunelleschi's Dome by Ross King. Recommended by 1 sources.
“Ross King's account reads like a slow-burning engineering detective story set in Renaissance Florence: lively portraits, bureaucratic rivalries, and step-by-step solutions to the dome's knotty problems. What works best is making technical ingenuity readable without equations, showing how tools, craftspeople, and political pressure shaped an audacious building project. The book's limitation is its appetite for construction minutiae and repeated procedural set-pieces; readers who want brisk synthesis or short chapters may find the pace plodding. Not a how-to manual—no hands-on exercises or diagrams.”
