Book
Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. With broad perspective, acute insight, and humor, Biel explores the strangely enduring life of America's most popular painting. Ever since it met the public eye in 1930, the work has elicited admiration, disgust, reverence, and ridicule, and it has been reproduced hundreds of thousands of times in every medium.

Book
Trade Paperback. Condition: Used - Very Good. A Field Guide to Sprawl was selected by the urban web site Planetizen for its list of 'Top Ten Books in Urban Studies' and by Discover magazine for its list of 'Top 20 Books in Science.' Features on the book appeared in The New York Times and the Boston Globe. Duck, ruburb, tower farm, big box, and pig-in-a-python are among the dozens of zany terms invented by real estate developers and designers today to characterize land-use practices and the physical elements of sprawl. Sprawl in the environment, based on the metaphor of a person spread out, is hard to define. This concise book engages its meaning, explains common building patterns, and illustrates the visual culture of sprawl. Seventy-five stunning color aerial photographs, each paired with a definition, convey the impact of excessive development. This 'engagingly organized and splendidly photographed' (Wall Street Journal) book provides the verbal and visual vocabulary needed by professionals, public officials, and citizens to critique uncontrolled growth in the American landscape. A visual lexicon of the colorful slang, from alligator investment tozoomburb, that defines sprawl in America. Book has remainder mark on text edge. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
