Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Ernest Shackleton is one of historys great explorers, an extraordinary character who pioneered the path to the South Pole over 100 years ago and became a dominant figure in Antarctic discovery. A charismatic personality, his incredible adventures on four expeditions have captivated generations and inspired a dynamic, modern following in business leadership. None more so than the Endurance mission, where Shackletons commanding presence saved the lives of his crew when their ship was crushed by ice and they were turned out on to the savage frozen landscape. But Shackleton was a flawed character whose chaotic private life, marked by romantic affairs, unfulfilled ambitions, overwhelming debts and failed business ventures, contrasted with his celebrity status as a leading explorer. Drawing on extensive research of original diaries and personal correspondence, Michael Smith's definitive biography brings a fresh perspective to our understanding of this complex man and the heroic age of polar exploration. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Trade Paperback. Condición: Used - Good. This timely and thought-provoking collection of essays offers a detailed examination of contemporary architectural practice in the 1990s. 'Reflections on Architectural Practices' in the Nineties grew out of a year-long symposium at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, which took stock of pressing issues in order to speculate on future paths for both education and practice. Among the many challenges the architecture profession is currently facing are a constantly volatile economic climate, rapid technological change, and a general globalization of society. Reflections presents 29 essays by leading critics, scholars, and designers, essays that grapple with these and other issues and provide strategies for confronting them. Several additional perspectives are presented through brief passages and images of built work, so that the whole forms a collage of broad, diverse viewpoints. George Baird, Thomas Fisher, and Andrew Saint are among those who provide overviews of architectural practice and education. Mack Scogin, Carl Sapers, and David Harvey, among others, discuss contemporary professional responsibilities and ethics. Forms of practice in the 1990s are discussed by a variety of participants including Max Bond, David Dillon, Rob Quigley, and Sharon Zukin. Rem Koolhaas, Saskia Sassen, and William Lazonick, with others, discuss the impact of the global economy on architecture. Finally, Peter G. Rowe presents some possible implications for design education. 'Reflections on Architectural Practice in the Nineties' is an essential compendium for anyone in the ever-changing future of architecture. Open copy with mild wear, clean pages - though some pencil notations are present in text block, tight binding.…

Trade Paperback. Condición: Used - Very Good. The complicity between architecture and fashion is explored in essays by Mark Wigley, Val Warke, and Leila Kinney, among others, and architectural projects by Machado and Silvetti, Diller + Scofidio, and Venturi Scott Brown. Topics range from the encoding of gender in fashion within the work of Semper, Wagner, Loos, and Le Corbusier to a discussion of the body as a scaffold for the display of ready-made wear. Paulette Singley and Deborah Fausch provide an introduction. 'Architecture: In Fashion comes recommended with the caveat that it is not light reading. In fact, you may finish with a sense of wonder that it weighs so little, dense as it is with food for thought. This diminutive volume contains more theory than a freshman philosophy text, and the pictures are a hell of a lot better' -- Michael Jack, AIArchitect Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.…
