Eames Furniture Sourcebook

This book is beautifully designed with an embossed cover and great images. In my opinion it does some cover lesser known history about the Eames such as the history and properties of The materials they used. The main four being: plywood, fiberglass, wire, and aluminum. The book also has extensive information about each piece shown and many of the in-progress stages of making those pieces. Good for any Eames fan.

This is a nice book but it's definitely not a "must have". If you're an avid Eames collector of furniture and/or books, and you already have the Holy Grail of all Eames books " Eames Design Hardcover – October 1, 1989" by John Neuhart (Author), Marilyn Neuhart (Author), then you're all set for in terms of having the most extensive history of Everything Eames. This book pretty much reiterates most of what you've already know from the book mentioned above.I was a bit disappointed by the fact the experts and curator from Vitra who we involved with this book had not elaborate anything new. And I wish they had presented more photos Eames pieces from the Vitra collection.All in all it's an "ok" book but definite not one that you have to have.

Correct version. English. I was concerned by the previous review and I gambled, guess they figured it out! So much cheaper than at the Guggenheim!

Amazon information clearly states that the book is written in English. The book is 99 percent German language with an occasional English phrase thrown in. Unless you can read fluent German, I would pass on this as Amazon doesn't even know they have the wrong edition from the publisher.

Very thorough book. Will use it a teaching source
