NOTE: I contend that we will remember the 10-year period from 1995 to 2005 as the time when we believed the shit that came out of the mouth of an architect, and fell over ourselves to give them book deals — TTWWBTSTCOOTMOAAAFOOTGTBD for short. This book makes a fantastic Exhibit A for that argument. It’s great tho cuz it has that Actar this-is-an-important-architecture-book plastic cover, which has a very pretty circulation-graph thing on it.
According to Amazon, this book retails for $39.00— $31 more than what I’m asking — and ranks an understandable 850,423 in sales. The primary text of The Yokohama Project is credited to Tomoko Sakamoto, Albert Ferre, Michael Kubo, and Alejandro Zaera-Polo; Actar put this particular 320-page paperback edition out on Dec. 30, 1899, with Dewey Decimal number 720.0. The ISBN is 9788495951182.
