A sentimental examination of the changing face of UC Berkeley's world-renowned College of Environmental Design throughout the 20th Century. Just as constant evolution is inherent in the practice and history of design, the College of Environmental Design's steady metamorphosis incited by social and cultural changes, advancements in the design field and faculty contributions, is well documented in this book. This compilation of essays and historical documents features contributions from such notable faculty members as Christopher Alexander, Michael Bell, Charles Eames, Dan Solomon, William Wurster and many others.
