Publisher's description:

Emblematic of modernity, the grid is the underlying form of everything from skyscrapers to paintings by Mondrian. This title examines the history of ten grids that changed the world: the brick, the tablet, the gridiron city plan, the map, musical notation, the ledger, the screen, moveable type, the manufactured box, and the net.
