Plan B "Best Architecture Book of the Year" in the Netherlands

Totally thrilling news has reached me from the Netherlands: my book Plan B: Ontwerpen in een Complexe Wereld (Plan B: Designing In A Complex World) has been selected by the influential magazine de Architect as their best architecture book of the year. I would like to share this good fortune with you, too: if you forgot to send any of your Dutch-speaking friends a present this year send them Plan B as the perfect New Year's gift. It will make my publishers, SUN, happy too.

Tell the publishers I will buy it as soon as it is in English!
As the book implies designing is complex enough without having to learn Dutch as well.........

I'm talking to the publishers, MIT Press, about doing a revised In The Bubble 2.0. if for any reason that doesn't work out I'll post the new materials online anyway.
