A Fuller Explanation: The Synergetic Geometry of R. Buckminster Fuller by Amy C. Edmondson
A Fuller Explanation: The Synergetic Geometry of R. Buckminster Fuller by Amy C. Edmondson
This new edition revives an indispensable classic, originally described as "the long-awaited and outstanding new book that explains Buckminster Fuller's Synergetics. The author, who worked closely with Fuller the last three years of his life, realized that the 1400 pages of dense prose in Fuller's Synergetics can be explained in clear terms."

"As Fuller's personal engineer, Edmondson gained an intimate understanding of synergetics and its potential for making humans a success on Earth. Her clear narrative translates the Synergetics books into familiar language. Read alone the book is the clearest available introduction to energetic-synergetic geometry." - J. Baldwin

And it Came to Pass - Not to Stay by R. Buckminster Fuller
And it Came to Pass - Not to Stay by R. Buckminster Fuller
And it Came to Pass – Not to Stay brings together Buckminster Fuller’s lyrical and philosophical best, including seven “essays” in a form he called his “ventilated prose”, and as always addressing the current global crisis and his predictions for the future. These essays, including “How Little I Know”, “What I am Trying to Do“, “Soft Revolution”, and “Ethics”, put the task of ushering in a new era of humanity in the context of “always starting with the universe”. In rare form, Fuller elegantly weaves the personal, the playful, the simple, and the profound.

How does automation influence individualization? How can we utilize our resources more effectively to realize our potential to end poverty in this generation? He questions the concept of specialization, calls for a design revolution of innovation, and offers advice on how to guide “spaceship earth” toward a sustainable future.
