Cloth. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. English translation by Christopher Evans. AN INFORMATIVE, REVEALING LITERARY AND VISUALLY ABSORBING, EXEMPLARY PUBLICATION! From the Preface (craftsmanship and technology: the italian way): "The new millenium is marked by a far-reaching evolution in the concept of luxury. The changes that have occurred in the economy, in society and cultural life have focused luxury more closely on qualities of perception and the relation between object and subject, between product and consumer. The vision of luxury as pure ostentation is gone; the phase of absolute synthesis and the quest for the essence alone have been superseded. In recent years the sphere of luxury is a return to private values, intimate, spiritual and real. A simple lifestyle is in favor; the keywords are authenticity and awareness. The upshot is that the home and the domestic horizon have become the place where this authenticity is achieved, since modern society characterized by speed, technology and a new nomadism, has produced a need for protection and ancestral urge to feel the reassuring protection of the cocoon. The upshot is that it now becomes essential to analyze the interaction between man and technology. The pervasiveness of technology And IT, cold and detached, has actually increased the pleasure and desire of the past, of traditional things, of products that retrieve decorative features of local cultures and histories. These values are gaining great importance in all aspects of everyday life and the way of introducing innovation, such as artifacts for the home, notably furniture. Italian innovation is essentially bound up with the design process, which has historically developed a technical culture much closer to the workings of the craft workshop than to heav industry, though it is based on a careful study of technology and materials. I feel this is the reason behind the success of Italian design also abroad." Profusely illustrated in full-color photography (many full page) with accompanying descriptive captions/passages. 282 pages. A near fine, bright, clean, tight, collector-worthy copy sans rips/tears, stains, and discoloration. *NOTE: Due to size/weight, significant additional shipping will be required for out-of-U.S. shipment in conjunction with destination.

Rilegato. Condition: come nuovo. In un pianeta dilaniato dai conflitti un elemento accomuna gli uomini, qualunque ne sia l'etnia o la provenienza geografica: è la fede, il credere in un aldilà, la speranza di un mondo trascendente. Andrea Pistolesi ha seguito le tracce dei credenti nel mondo documentando i gesti della fede in Paesi, culture, civiltà tra loro lontanissime. Monaci buddhisti che pregano nell'aria rarefatta di monasteri alle pendici dell'Himalaya, ebrei ortodossi davanti al muro del Pianto, certosini che animano silenziosi chiostri, anziani yogi sulle rive del Gange: sono alcune delle istantanee di questo libro da cui emerge un affresco in cui ognuno dei protagonisti idealmente ripete: Io credo.
