Buckminster Fuller was one of the most revolutionary technological visionaries of this century. As an architect, engineer, entrepreneur, and poet, he was the quintessential American self-made man. But he was also an outsider, a technical expert with a poet's imagination who by the 1930s had already developed theories on environmental issues and anticipated the rapid globalization of our planet.

It contains numerous illustrations, many published here for the first time, as well as texts by Fuller and the editors. 600 illustrations
