Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Printed in the U.S.A. at the Falcon Press. First printing. [Date from the copyright page.] Text replete with photographs and drawings; Notes and Acknowledgments; 203 pages, followed by a page with a note from the editors, and lists of donors, patrons, and sponsors. The dark gray French-fold decorated wraps are in excellent shape; the interior with illustrations on glossy paper is equally fine and completely clean. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] There is a passage quoted from Walter Benjamin as epigraph to the first entry: "The concept of the historical progress of mankind cannot be sundered from the concept of its progression through a homogenous, empty time. A critique of the concept of such a progression must be the basis of any criticism of the concept of progress itself." Contributors: Roland Barthes, David P. Billington, David Bohm, William S. Burroughs, Maria Bottero, Peter Caws, Umberto Eco, Antoni Gaudi, Louis I. Kahn, Claude Levi-Strauss, Robert Maillart, Rowland J. Mainstone, Robert Le Ricolais and Henriette Grindat. References are made to innumerable artists, philosophers, scholars and scientists throughout the ages. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage.
