Inventor of the future : the visionary life of Buckminster Fuller / Alec Nevala-Lee. by Nevala-Lee, Alec. Dey St., an imprint of William Morrow, 2022. Call #: 620.0092 F967n Subjects Fuller, R. Buckminster (Richard Buckminster), 1895-1983.   Engineers -- United States -- Biography.   Architects -- United States -- Biography.   Inventors -- United States -- Biography. ISBN:  9780062947222 (hc.) Description:  655 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "During his lifetime, Buckminster Fuller was hailed as one of the greatest geniuses of the twentieth century. As the architectural designer and futurist best known for the geodesic dome, he enthralled a vast popular audience, inspired devotion from both the counterculture and the establishment, and was praised as a modern Leonardo da Vinci. His views on sustainability, as embodied in the image of Spaceship Earth, convinced him that it was possible to provide for all humanity through the efficient use of planetary resources. Drawing on meticulous research, dozens of interviews, and thousands of unpublished documents, Nevala-Lee has produced a riveting portrait that transcends the myth of Fuller as an otherworldly generalist."
