R. BUCKMINSTER FULLER: WORLD MANDaniel Lopez-Perez
This recently released book presents the original typescript of the previously unreleased Kenneth Stone Kassler Memorial Lecture, representing his radical thinking at the height of his career, a year before his masterwork took shape at Expo ’67 in Montreal. In a rallying cry to architects, he calls for them to shape their universe by responding to its underlying principles. And it seems just as relevant today as it did at the time.
134 pages, paperback with color photographs, detailed diagrams and annotations.
