The Marraige of Industry and Design.......2005-12-22

This book was published as a catalogue for a 1991 show at the American Craft Museum. The show's purpose was to look at Craft in the United States from 1920-1945. This was an exciting period when American industrial designers took many of the emerging ideas of European Modernism and gave these new theories a unique American character. This age known variously as Depression Modern, Streamline, Art Moderne and Art Deco.

What makes this book interesting is that it focuses on craft. There are chapters on wood working, metal working, glass blowing, ceramics and textiles. As would be expected, this book covers the iconic works of the masters such as Teague, Deskey, Rhode and Wright. But there are also a number of less well known craftmen of the period. It is these more obscure figures that make this book compelling. Their contributions illustrate that fact that this was a movement as oppossed to the exceptional works of a few remarkable craftsmen.

"Craft in the Machine Age" is filled with numerous photographs and has chapters on the different crafts written by museum curators and academics. As you would expect, it is a well made professional catalogue of a major art exhibition. This book is a must purchase for enthusiasts of American material culture in the years between the two World Wars. Highly recommended.

The difficulty of change & specifically technology transfer.......1999-09-14

About half way through her book Bouldin starts showing the reader when analysis should start on a project, which is way before even the coding starts. The book "Agents of Change" points out the obvious problem about the difficulty of change and specifically technology transfer, then outlines a plan for the project manager to implement change or a technology transfer. For people who introduce change into organizations, Bouldin offers more than a checklist for handling the inevitable resistance, she offers explanations and options for handling different scenarios from the concept of a project to final implementation. LHC Sept 1999
