About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

Reviews

[Wei Cho · Rating 4 out of 5]

Issey Miyake is a really interesting person. His thoughts about fashion are totally applicable to architecture. It is pleasant and scary at the same time how design is interrelated. His pieces are so beautiful and provocative and he is a prolific designer and maker.
