About This Item
DJ with small tape-repaired tear on upper front flap and surface ink marks; previous book seller's scan label on back. Slightly shelf cocked but the binding is tight, the seven last pages and endpaper are bent; text block pages are clear of marks. Includes 500 color photographs, Bibliographical References and Index. Magazine article about "Cell Phonies" laid in. A guide to exploring the structures of our modern industrial world--what they are and why they're there, some so familiar we hardly notice them, and facilities that have transformed our landscape. According to the book's writeup: "Covering agriculture, resources, energy, communication, transportation, manufacturing, and waste, this is the "Book of Everything" for the industrial landscape." and "… a compelling and clear guide for those who want to explore and understand this mysterious world we've made for ourselves." Overweight, oversized or overseas (including Canada and Mexico) shipments almost always cost more. You will be contacted as soon as we determine the additional shipping charge.
