About This Book
First of a three-book series. This book deals with Shelter, the others with Food and Energy.
Describes the basics of shelter from the elements. Covers clothing, caves, tents, yurts, geodesic domes, log cabins, stone structures and more.
The UK edition was printed in 9 colours to colour code the different sections. This was unfortunately dropped in the rationalised US edition. In addition the book is unpaginated and each category of shelter has a unique symbol in the bottom right corner of the page. The UK edition is now rare due to the perfect binding which was meant to be removed and the pre drilled pages put into a ring binder and reorganised and added to. The idea being to challenge the idea of fixed taxonomies and the authority of the book.
An only recently uploaded justification of why and how I did this work from 1972 is not up on IO
