Description:The five hundred volumes chosen by publisher and author Steve Miller to appear in these lushly illustrated pages represent the unlimited creative possibilities for interpreting an enduring form. They capture the range and depth of the craft today, from single sheet bindings to collage, flip, and pop-up works. In this digital age, "handmade books are being recognized as vessels of humanized content," says Miller, "touchstones of what we are as people."
