Frank Lloyd Wright's Unfinished Work

This book began at the side of the man long called The World's Greatest Architect, and now our first green and ecological architect. Having been privileged to serve as Wright's youngest apprentice, Vernon Swaback combines that experience with his life-long work and study, integrating everything from history, economics, and science, to the arts, technology and religion.
If a man born just two years after the civil war could so inspire and maintain the world's interest in his approach, imagine what the insights and technologies of the 21st Century could make possible if, in a Frank Lloyd Wright manner, they could be artfully integrated into a more beautiful and enriching way of life. While the world's museums and galleries celebrate the special achievements of design, the time has come to turn how we live into our greatest works of art. Not only is this possible, there is no longer any other sustainable option. Frank Lloyd Wright's Unfinished Work is about living at a time of urgent joy. Urgent because we are unwittingly attacking the very essence of our own existence. Joyful because we are on the verge of becoming co-creators with the nature of life itself, all of which depends on broadening our appreciation for the holistic power of design.
