Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. Hardback Book and Dustcover Condition: As New Fuller's last work, nearly finished when he died in 1983, is composed of short sweeps--for Fuller--of afterthought, and some additions, to the main themes of his previous books. As always, Fuller spikes his science with anthropology and sociology, as he did in Critical Path (1981) and Syngergetics I and II (1971-1979), but for hardcore Fuller fans the heart of this book will be the long chapter called "Cosmic Conceptioning." This section includes a note Fuller wrote to himself, at his wife's hospital bed, on "spheric experiences" of the structure of gases--a raw example of Fuller's special "geometry of thinking." (It is dated 1983 and signed "with thanks to God, the eternal sum of all truths.") "History of Structure," on the other hand, reads like a guest-lecture speech, summarizing the future world millenium according to Fuller. While obtuse wording, such as "omninteraccelerating cosmic concept" can seem to mock his brilliant insights into the grand geometry of structures, topology, chemistry, metallurgy and, perhaps, society, nearly a decade after his death, Fuller is still ahead of the parade. Fuller was one of the truly original thinkers of the 20th century. This book is a collection of his thoughts about life, progress, and humanity's role in the universe as he voiced them during the last four years of his life. Transcribed by his "adjuvant" Kiyoshi Kuromiya, they range over a panoply of topics. Among other things, he attempts to explain politics, sociology, economics, and history by metaphorically extending physical and mathematical structures to describe human behavior. Although modesty was not his strongest point, Fuller was undeniably an exceptional person. His fame alone suggests that libraries should add this book to their collection. 277 pp.

Erstausgabe
Tall 8vo. xvi, 405, [1] pp. Maps, diagrams, 2 large folding charts at end. Copper-coloured-metallic cloth, black lettering on front cover & spine, illust. map endpapers (minor bumping to couple corners, very minor shelfwear), w/ d.j. cover art printed in silver & copper, white & black lettering (minor chipping head & foot of spine, corners, minor scuffing, creasing, couple minor closed tears), still VG-/G- copy. First edition of this futuristic work by one of the most original and influential minds of the 20th century. Fuller in his first book argues that the optimization of the world's resources called for vertical thinking, and demonstrated how space flight and the totalizing view of Earth that it would afford could be a measure of human mental evolution. He muses on the possibility of space flight and lunar voyages by an American space craft. A remarkable early work focusing on human effort influencing evolution and that future prosperity would be driven by increased efficiency (ephemeralization), despite finite resources.
