Reviews

"The most useful - and inspiring - work on the subject."—Architectural Review "A generous and widely researched history of the movement. Phaidon deserves all our thanks and admiration for their policy towards architectural publications"—Building Design "This book looks at the lives, theories and work of the architects of the movement. It captures an epoch in architecture that captivated many and in some ways paved the way for modern architecture."—Jury of the American Institute of Architects
