Part of Laurence King's "Form & Technique" series (other titles include Deployable Structures and Generative Design), this little book's release was timely, coming just after Frei Otto's passing and him winning the Pritzker Architecture Prize last year. Although his projects are nowhere to be found in the book, his influence permeates throughout. Along with R. Buckminster Fuller, Otto pioneered doing less with more. And he looked to nature – soap bubbles, spider webs – to figure out how to do it. With air as their primary "building material," the projects in this book show that the desire to build lightweight – and fun – structures continues.

This book is simply a collection of worked out problems in engineering mechanics. One of my professors gave it to me for getting the highest score on a quiz. It was useful during some of my other courses.
