Due to more demand for the original edition (it sold out even at $300),
we reprinted 30 copies. Spiral bound. $120 for the set. Hundreds and hundreds
of beautiful line drawings. Twelve artists worked for years to produce these
drawings. Over a decade of photography around the world went into the photographs
from which the drawings were taken. These two volumes are the English original
of Hellmuth's Ph.D. dissertation, the fancy edition printed in Graz, Austria.
