The Ancient Roman City (Ancient Society and History) by John E. Stambaugh

This has a touch of the sociology of 'Invisible Romans,' but it's much more oriented to the student of architecture and planning. The most intriguing contribution is not necessarily the dissection of the city of Rome, but the cities of Thamagudi, Ostia and Arelate. Congrats, Stambaugh. Loved it.

The Ancient Roman City by John E. Stambaugh

Any book that can promise me floorplans wins my unconditional affection, and The Ancient Roman City is no exception.
