Review
Of all the ways of sheltering people, this suburban way is the most consuming, the most demanding, the most wasteful, the most polluting and the most segregational. Arcosanti Archetype is an accessible introduction to Paolo Soleri's alternatives. -- Jerry Brown, Oakland Mayor & former California Governor
Wilson first introduces the reader to the man himself and his philosophy in regard to the Arcosanti project. She then proceeds to the project site itself and a tour of the facility begins. We learn about the history of the project as well as future plans for this bold experiment. This book gives the reader an excellent overview of the project and I recommend it highly as introductory material on this subject. -- David Ellefsen, Librarian - MLS, Fountain Hills, AZ.
