YOUR DISCIPLINE [ here ]



Here it is.”


The local chain book merchant guided me back to where I had stood previously and pointed to the (half full) bottom shelf. I had falsely assumed that the Architecture and Design section had been moved. The few books that were there were certainly not treatises of Architecture, or for that matter, worth picking up.


Now it can't be said that southern Florida is by any means the literary or design center of anything, however I couldn't help being discouraged by my visit. I hope this is not a sign of the popular relevance of our discipline. -KD
