This 288 page monograph features 99 color plates and 49 black-and-white reproductions. The book includes a foreword by Thomas M. Messer, an epigraph by George Tooker, and an introduction by Albert Boime.

“No one could accuse Simon Dinnerstein of being a fashionable artist. Not at the time he began, not now, and not at any time in between. Leafing through the catalogue of his mature work that now spans two decades, one is struck immediately by his total disregard of prevailing taste, his apparent disinterest in the visual arguments of advanced art circles, and conversely, by his single-minded concentration upon the development of a highly personal, creative pursuit....it will be of real interest to follow Simon Dinnerstein's art as it evolves further.”
