Acknowledgment is gratefully made to John Entenza, the Graham Foundation, Hugh Kenner, Brooke Maxwell, Shoji Sadao, and Edwin Schlossberg for their assistance in the production of this book.
The discoveries, concepts, vocabulary, phraseology-every word- and entire writing style of this book originate exclusively in the mind of R. Buckminster Fuller. My role has been strictly editorial: identifying, sorting out, and organizing the presentation of five decades of Fuller’s thinking, continually confronting the author with himself.
