Carving the Elements: A Companion to The Fragments of Parmenides

$20.00

“This is the story of making a book: not another (God help us) piece of writing about writing, but about the nitty-gritty: making a book, and getting made…. It was an exercise in carving steel, stone and wood and air – and in carving hexadecimals and hydrocarbon polymer as well. But mostly it remains what it first was: an exercise in carving thought – primarily by hand.”

….

“This book is … a guided tour of … the philosophy of artisanship, in some of its many forms.”
