Cast-Iron Furniture by Georg Himmelheber, ISBN 0856674621
Iron seemed to be suitable for everything - from railway lines to steam kettles, jewellery and furniture. Beds, chairs, tables, benches and small items of furniture made of cast-iron, the most modern and versatile material of its time, were available due to its durability and low price.
The art-historical development of cast-iron furniture has long been neglected and this book offers a systematic illustrated record of the many diverse forms featuring two major names: Karl Friedrich Schinkel of Germany and Christopher Dresser of the United Kingdom.
With over 460 types of iron furniture presented among 160 pages of illustrations, Georg Himmelheber provides furniture experts and dealers, designers and collectors with the first complete and international survey of this very popular furniture. This book is also an important contribution to the cultural history of the 19th century.

In Primitives in the Wilderness, Peter van Wyck brings the radical environmentalism known as deep ecology into an encounter with contemporary social and cultural theory. With an eye to critically exposing unexamined essentialist and foundational commitments, the author shows how deep ecology remains profoundly entangled with the very traditions of thought it has sought to overcome. The author critically assesses deep ecology's relations with the Enlightenment, modernity, systems theory, anthropocentrism, the figure of wilderness and the trope of the primitive, and the imagined promise of posthistoric primitivism. He demonstrates the manner in which deep ecology (and much of contemporary environmental thought) has remained blind to the lessons (and possibilities) of contemporary social and poststructural...
