In Selective Eye: An Architect’s Notebook, David Martin takes us along on a life-long journey of discovery that begins with his distinguished architectural legacy, and his early personal family and educational influences. Sharing his memorable visual and verbal impressions of his wide-ranging travels, through Asia, Europe, the American Southwest, Mexico, the Middle East, the South Pacific, and the Caribbean, David’s journey concludes with valuable insights into the conception, design and realization process in architecture, the MADWORKSHOP Foundation, his distinguished career as a teacher, and his plans for the future. A testament to the fact that David is an extremely talented watercolorist and photographer with a not-so-secret passion for automotive and furniture design, his watercolors have been exhibited throughout the United States and are presented here, for the first time, as a collection in print form.

"A penetrating account of Cold War intrigue filled with strange doings and even stranger people. Enthralling, provocative.”—Washington Post. "A remarkably detailed account of the internal disputes about the defectors and double agents that tied the CIA in knots during the 1960s.”—The Wall Street Journal “A classic of intelligence literature.” —Center for the Study of Intelligence At the dawn of the Cold War, the world’s most important intelligence agencies—the Soviet KGB, the American CIA, and the British MI6—appeared to have clear-cut roles and a sense of rising importance in their respective countries. But when Kim Philby, head of MI6’s Russian division and arguably the twenty-first century’s greatest spy, was revealed to be a Russian mole along with British government heavyweights Donald Maclean and Guy Burgess, everything in the Western intelligence world turned upside down. Here is the true story of how the American James Bond—the colorful, foulmouthed, pistol-packing, alcoholic ex-FBI agent William “King” Harvey—put the finger on Philby; how James Jesus Angleton, the chain-smoking poet of Yale University and the CIA’s supposed “master spy” in charge of counterintelligence, began his descent into a paranoid wilderness of mirrors upon learning of family friend Kim Philby’s ultimate betrayal; and the devastating consequences of the loss of MI6 prestige and the CIA’s subsequent self-defeating witch hunts. Every revelation, every stranger-than-fiction twist and turn is all the more intriguing as truths become lies and unlikely scenarios are revealed as reality. With impeccable sourcing and the use of thousands of pages of declassified research, David C. Martin’s Wilderness of Mirrors is widely recognized as a masterpiece of intelligence literature.

David C. Martin was the third-generation design partner for AC Martin Architects. This is a portfolio of significant projects that were designed during the period of 1970s to the 2010s. The book includes a number of unpublished photos of award-winning architecture. The treatise includes many of David's conceptual sketches, his thoughts about design philosophy and describes working relations with his partner Chris Martin and other team members within the dynamics of a large architectural firm. He describes the culture of the firm and how the practice evolved thru the generations. The scale of the work ranges from individual houses to 75-story towers--from houses, churches, aerospace, universities to corporate towers. What differentiates this monograph from most is that it is a personal expression, illustrated by lush photographs from LA's best architectural photographers, it includes personal sketches and watercolors that chronical the design process. It deals with teamwork, family, craftsmanship, and the joy of architectural practice.
