Critical Path is Fuller's master work--the summing up of a lifetime's thought and concern--as urgent and relevant as it was upon its first publication in 1981. Critical Path details how humanity found itself in its current situation—at the limits of the planet's natural resources and facing political, economic, environmental, and ethical crises.

The crowning achievement of an extraordinary career, Critical Path offers the reader the excitement of understanding the essential dilemmas of our time and how responsible citizens can rise to meet this ultimate challenge to our future.

Collected are 20 selections from Fuller's books, each introduced by notable thinkers and writers like Steve Forbes and Arthur C. Clarke. Though Fuller's distinctive style--part engineering text, part poetry--takes a bit of extra attention to penetrate, the rewards are tremendous. Though now clichéd, his concept of Spaceship Earth ("only eight thousand miles in diameter, which is almost a negligible dimension in the great vastness of space") blew more minds than the Beatles' "White Album." Zung's selections are juicy and enticing--few readers will be able to resist a trip to the library after reading morsels of Utopia or Oblivion and Epic Poem on the History of Industrialization. The introductions range from scholarly to personal, and close in on Fuller's work and personality without ever quite reaching them-they, of course, are best revealed in his writing and his still-mimicked work. Those new to this thinker will find the anthology breathtaking, while those in the know will discover much that is new, including his amazing $10 telegram version of the theory of relativity. It's hard to overestimate Fuller's importance to 20th- and 21st-century thought, despite his self-description in his last book: "I am now close to 88 and I am confident that the only thing important about me is that I am an average healthy human." If only he knew. --Rob Lightner ]]> 165737 4.08 577 71 1905686 3.53 17 2 2001 285351 0809300885 1 <![CDATA[Nine Chains to the Moon]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/285351.Nine_Chains_to_the_Moon 3.86 14 165737 4.08 577 71 1970 584200 0020926308 9780020926306 1 <![CDATA[Ideas and Integrities]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1220378970m/584200.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1220378970s/584200.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/584200.Ideas_and_Integrities 3.93 15 165737 4.08 577 71 1963 285362 0025418106 9780025418103 1 <![CDATA[And It Came to Pass-Not to Stay]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/285362.And_It_Came_to_Pass_Not_to_Stay 4.60 10 165737 4.08 577 71 1976 1864597 0385012446 9780385012447 1 <![CDATA[Intuition]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1864597.Intuition 4.00 4 165737 4.08 577 71 1972 316361 0809302470 9780809302475 1 <![CDATA[No More Secondhand God and Other Writings]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/316361.No_More_Secondhand_God_and_Other_Writings 3.80 10 165737 4.08 577 71 0 1321402 0312793626 9780312793623 3 <![CDATA[Tetrascroll: Goldilocks and the Three Bears, A Cosmic Fairy Tale]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1188732607m/1321402.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1188732607s/1321402.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1321402.Tetrascroll_Goldilocks_and_the_Three_Bears_A_Cosmic_Fairy_Tale 3.89 9 165737 4.08 577 71 1982 1321398 0385029799 9780385029797 1 <![CDATA[Buckminster Fuller to Children of Earth]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1321398.Buckminster_Fuller_to_Children_of_Earth 4.40 5 165737 4.08 577 71 1972 1321407 0385018258 9780385018258 0 <![CDATA[Earth, Inc.]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1321407.Earth_Inc_ 3.50 4 165737 4.08 577 71 1973 285360 0312434790 9780312434793 1 <![CDATA[Inventions: The Patented Works of R.
