Upon its publication aby the MIT Press in 1972, Learning from Las Vegas was immediately influential and controversial. The authors made an argument that was revolutionary for its time - that the billboards and casinos of Las Vegas were worthy of architectural attention - and offered a challenge for contemporary architects obsessed with the heroic and monumental. The physical book itself, designed aby MIT's iconic designer Muriel Cooper, was hailed as a masterpiece of modernist design, but the book's design struck the authors as too monumental for a text that praised the ugly and ordinary over the heroic and monumental. The MIT Press published a revised version in 1977 - a modest paperback that the authors felt was more in keeping with the argument of the book - and the original Cooper-designed book fell out of print and became a highly sought-after collectors' item. Now, decades after the original hardcover edition sold out, the MIT Press is publishing a facsimile edition of the original large-format Cooper-designed edition of Learning from Las Vegas, complete with translucent glassine wrap.
