I've been off and on again about liking/not liking Cabinet, but I think I *have* to have this collection, regardless. I can't resist alphabetical lists and encyclopedias. *CAN'T*. - CABINET // Curiosity and Method: Ten Years of Cabinet Magazine - http://www.cabinetmagazine.org/books...
"This anthology gathers some of the most interesting successes, and a few instructive failures, published in the first forty issues of Cabinet. Taking the form of an illustrated encyclopedia, the idiosyncratic entries include Addiction, Animal Architecture, Goalkeeping, Micronation, Otolith, Sandal, Worlding, and Zoosemiotics. This hardcover book is over 500 pages long and a must for the intellectually curious!" - Kamilah Reed (K. Gill)
