Your Private Sky: R. Buckminster Fuller: The Art of Design Science

Buckminster Fuller (1895â€“1983) was one of the most revolutionary technological visionaries of the 20th century. As an architect, engineer, entrepreneur, and poet, he was a quintessentially American self-made man. But he was also an outsider: a technologist with a poetâ€™s imagination who already developed theories of environmental control in the thirties (â€œmore with lessâ€) and who anticipated the globalization of our planet (â€œthink globalâ€•act localâ€). In light of the reawakening interest in his works and thoughts, and of their growing importance for our technological world, it is time for a re-edition of this comprehensive and legendary publication from 1999. The visual reader Your Private Sky examines and documents Fullerâ€™s theories, ideas, and projects, and critically deals with his ideology of â€œrescue through technology.â€
