Duchamp in Context by Linda Dalrymple Henderson

Offers a study of the Large Glass in relation to the corpus of Duchamp's notes for the project. This book focuses on the scientific and technological themes that pervade the notes and the imagery of the Large Glass. It provides a history of science as known at the turn of the century, centered on late Victorian physics.
Winner of the 1999 Robert Hamilton Author Award, University of Texas Cooperative Society "A remarkable new study.. I greatly recommend Henderson's book as an exciting exploration of the borders between art and science, as they were traced at the dawn of Moderism by an elliptical genius."--Arthur C. Danto, The Nation
