Together with the Olympics, world's fairs are one of the few regular international events of sufficient scale to showcase a spectrum of sights, wonders, learning opportunities, technological advances, and new (or renewed) urban districts, and to present them all to a mass audience. Meet Me at the Fair: A World's Fair Reader breaks new ground in scholarship on world's fairs by incorporating a number of short new texts that investigate world's fairs in their multiple aspects: political, urban/architectural, anthropological/ sociological, technological, commercial, popular, and representational. Contributors come from eight different countries and represent affiliations in academia, museums and libraries, professional and architectural firms, non-profit organizations, and government regulatory agencies. In taking the measure of both the material artifacts and the larger cultural production of world's fairs, the volume presents its own phantasmagoria of disciplinary perspectives, historical periods, geographical locales, media, and messages, mirroring the microcosmic form of the world's fair itself.

Not to mention that her only employee and faster than the speed of light bunny, Saiko, has the attention span of a chickpea and a disturbing affection for Lavender's enchanted car. Now Lavender must think fast before an over-zealous ex-superhero health inspector shuts her down for good. Will Lavender meet the inspector's demands on time? Where are the poisonous vermin coming from? Will Saiko's love for cars go too far? This publisher is a new client to Diamond Book Distributors!
