The Eames House Conservation Management Plan (CMP) provides a framework for the care, management, and conservation of the Eames House, also known as Case Study House No. 8, an internationally renowned work of modern architecture designed by Charles and Ray Eames. The CMP was developed using an internationally recognized, values-based methodology. It analyzes the historical, documentary, and physical site evidence to develop a thorough understanding of the place, followed by an assessment of its heritage significance. These assessments provided the foundation for development of a series of policies, some general and some specific to particular elements of the site, intended to guide the conservation, interpretation, and management of the Eames House in a manner that preserves its cultural significance for future generations.

"A provocative and innovative reexamination of the trajectory of sociopolitical evolution among Native American groups in California, this book explains the region's prehistorically rich diversity of languages, populations, and environmental adaptations. Ethnographic and archaeological data and evolutionary, economic, and anthropological theory are often presented to explain the evolution of increasing social complexity and inequality. In this account, these same data and theories are employed to argue for an evolving pattern of 'orderly anarchy,' which featured small, inward-looking groups that, having devised a diverse range of ingenious solutions to the many environmental, technological, and social obstacles to resource intensification, were crowded onto what they had turned into the most densely populated landscape in aboriginal North America"--Provided by publishe
