The Chair: Rethinking Culture, Body, and DesignPerhaps no other object of our daily environment has had the enduring cultural significance of the ever present chair, unconsciously yet forcefully shaping the physical and social dimensions of our lives.

Perhaps no other object of our daily environment has had the enduring cultural significance of the ever-present chair, unconsciously yet forcefully shaping the physical and social dimensions of our lives. With over ninety illustrations, this book traces the history of the chair as we know it from its crudest beginnings up through the modern office variety. Drawing on anecdotes, literary references, and famous designs, Galen Cranz documents our ongoing love affair with the chair and how its evolution has been governed not by a quest for comfort or practicality, but by the designation of status.Relating much of the modern era's rampant back pain to an increasingly sedentary lifestyle spent in traditional seating, Cranz goes beyond traditional ergonomic theory to formulate new design principles that challenge the way we think and live. A farsighted and innovative approach to our most intimate habitat, this book offers guidelines that will assist readers in choosing a chair-and designing a lifestyle-that truly suits our bodies. Praise for The Chair " A] concise, multidisciplinary gem." Publishers Weekly "Cranz is no sedentary historian. The Chair is a call to action." Jonathan Levi, Los Angeles Times "Galen Cranz has written a provocative book. Pull up a comfortable chair-if you can find one-and read it." Witold Rybczynski"Binding Type: Paperback

My Dog Loved It—Until It Stopped Working
Size: Large, Color: Ball-Red
I purchased this treat-dispensing dog toy for my German Shepherd, and for the first couple of days it worked exactly as advertised. When rolled or tossed, it made an engaging sound that immediately caught my dog’s attention and encouraged him to interact with the toy to get the treats out. He absolutely loved it.
Unfortunately, after only a few days, the sound feature stopped working. Then it mysteriously started working again for a short period, so I thought the issue had resolved itself. However, it has now stopped completely. No matter how much I shake, roll, or toss the toy, it no longer makes any sound.
I went out of town and didn’t realize the return window had passed while I was gone. By the time I returned, the return deadline had already expired, which was disappointing because I would have returned it when the problem first appeared.
Based on my experience, I cannot recommend purchasing this toy. While many of the reviews seem positive, perhaps I received a defective unit. It’s disappointing that it stopped functioning properly after barely a month of use.
That said, my dog genuinely enjoyed it when it was working, and I would appreciate it if the manufacturer would stand behind their product and offer a replacement as a courtesy. I would be happy to return the defective toy. If a replacement performed as intended, I would gladly reconsider my opinion.
For now, however, I am very disappointed with the functionality and reliability of this product.

The Only Thing He Hasn't TOTALLY Destroyed
Size: Large, Color: Ball-Blue
I've spent my hard earned money on SOOOO many "indestructible " toys. This one is actually pretty good. It has a duck sound inside for when the pet rolls the ball to get the treats. I didn't use it for the treats. I gave this toy 4-stars because my dog broke the sound box while chewing it. We pulled the pieces out and he LOVES it. Great for play,and comfort. Sometimes, he sleeps with it. I guess you could say it's his favorite 😍.

Great balls of fun!
Size: Large, Color: Ball-Red
One of the best toys that was ever made! My wife likes to put little treats in there and I'll bat the ball around. The room gives their hours of entertainment. She puts little things like hands of corn i
