Summary:
Is print really dead, or is it going to die anytime soon? This book examines “a particular (and often puzzling) period in the history of print… as new digital technologies are rapidly transforming both the status and the role of printed materials.” The medium of print is without doubt under threat from new digital sources, yet the two are also finding a paradoxical coexistence despite their shared characteristics and functional competition. In some ways, print is actually nowadays being revitalized rather than replaced, an intriguing prospect which is explored in depth in the pages of this book.

Yet the rise of the underground newspaper was equally daring and original. Thanks to advances in cheap offset printing, groups involved in antiwar, civil rights, and other social(...)

Summary:
Though we think of the 1960s and the early ‘70s as a time of radical social, cultural, and political upheaval, we tend to picture the action as happening on campuses and in the streets. Yet the rise of the underground newspaper was equally daring and original. Thanks to advances in cheap offset printing, groups involved in antiwar, civil rights, and other social liberation issues began to spread their messages through provocatively designed newspapers and broadsheets. Power to the People presents more than 700 full-color images and excerpts from these publications, many of which have not been seen since they were first published almost fifty years ago.

Summary:
The Anatomy of the Architectural Book examines the relationships between book culture and building culture, making visible the axes along which architectural knowledge circulates through books into buildings and back. Using five conceptual tools—texture, surface, rhythm, structure, and scale—Tavares analyzes the material qualities of a wide range of books in order to assess these dynamics and intersections. This investigation confronts us with the rise of the industrialized book, and thus of the editor as an important intermediary between the author and the printer, as well as with the configuration of the book as a unique visual device (with the designer taking part in a progressively more complex chain of decision-making). Richly illustrated with samples from the CCA library, the volume discusses work by authors including William Morris, Gottfried Semper, El Lissitzky, Le Corbusier, and Frank Lloyd Wright, among others. A large portion of the research for the book was undertaken while Tavares was a Visiting Scholar at the CCA. It is co-published in English by Lars Müller Publishers and in Portuguese by Dafne Editora.
