Review
This book is an important collection of historical and critical surveys and a brilliant study of the trends and developments of the modern scene with its historical background and true significance. For the general reader interested in the past and its relation to our present, and the specialist in architecture preoccupied with its facets of change, the author has succeeded in presenting a consistently developing process and a clear, concise picture.--Edward Larocque Tinker "New York Times Book Review "

I would definitely recommend to have one of this book to be on the bookshelf. It explains a lot about things that happened during modernism. From what happened from CIAM - CIAM X, the 'International Style', etc.

Anyone studying architecture should have at least read it.
It's not a holy bible but it tells a lot about that time.
