Here the best work in the field grapples with the artist's book as a problem space, an indefinite and critical array of forms, materials, sensations, and strategies.""--Nicholas Thoburn, author, Anti-Book: On the Art and Politics of Radical Publishing" Author InformationJohanna Drucker is a scholar, critic, and book artist who lives in Los Angeles, California.
