Summary: Good quality and price, good value
Comment: It's an extraordinary building, and the photography is of a quality worthy of the architecture.
If I could change this book, I would make it larger. Its small page size means you have to look closely to see the images well. I would rather it be big enough to be a coffee table book, and would be willing to pay more. Otherwise, it's an excellent photo-documentary of a brilliant and facinating building. I keep it visable on my desk.

Summary: fantastic but small
Comment: i just bought this book and essentially it's great, and i recommend it. if you are familiar with the TWA terminal at JFK airport you'll be shocked at the loss of grandeur time has inflicted upon the interior. the pictures will show you the full beauty of the architecture which has been diluted over the decades by disrepair, clutter, and restructuring. in any case, the photos themselves are a stunning compliment to the marvelous, chic design on display. The images echo the sleek modernist space station in "2001", but with an exacting, crisp interlocking of elements. which brings me to the drawback--the photos are too small by far, and often spread over the center crease--and this is not a book that folds flat open easily. i'm sure there are other books with these pictures, but i don't know what they are. if you research it, bear in mind that this book does contain a preface and article that are quite illuminating, and the compact nature of the book does make it kind of darling.
