 Sixteen Rivers Press: New Titles - Any Old Wolf, by Murray Silverstein   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
“Casting a wide-ranging eye over ‘the all-time tragicomic brew’ of contemporary life, Murray Silverstein in these poems encourages us to look at life through the double lenses of humor and compassion.
Murray Silverstein's playful meditations on language are lively and engaging, as are his narratives about childhood memories, the lives of his children, early and mature loves.
And Silverstein, a gifted architect and poet, offers in this very fine work poems built from the intimacies of love, family and death, and a warm and witty engagement with the language of a full life.”

The key to creating a house that is memorable, satisfying, and enduring is to apply a group of design concepts--or "patterns--that focus on the experience of being in a home.
In this groundbreaking work, internationally respected architects Max Jacobson, Murray Silverstein, and Barbara Winslow present the ten essential patterns that shape and define a well-crafted home.
Patterns explore the presence of light, the relationship between indoors and out, the flow through rooms, and the feel of one space as you are sitting in another.

 AIArchitect, Nov. 4, 2002 - Patterns of Home: The Ten Essentials of Enduring Design
Back in school, we were absolutely awed by Christopher Alexander's A Pattern Language; so much so that we spent days traipsing around our converted warehouse of a school and its surround searching for evidence of "patterns." With more than 200 patterns at our disposal, even we students had no trouble finding them.
Three architects—Max Jacobson, AIA; Murray Silverstein, AIA; and Barbara Winslow, AIA—have given us a useful tool to help convey the magic: it's a book called Patterns of Home: The Ten Essentials of Enduring Design.
The authors, two of whom worked on the original pattern language with Alexander at the Center for Environmental Architecture in Berkeley, and all of whom are principals at JSW Architects, offer 10 "patterns of home," complex rules that designers employ—often intuitively—to design great houses.
