Reviews

'Crammed to bursting with valuable evidence and sharp insight... undoubtedly makes an important contribution to the contemporary re-evaluation of architectural modernism.' - RIBA 'A remarkably detailed account...Gold's book is a beautifully researched and gently ironical account of events and ideologies that are slipping away from living memory.' - The Architects' Journal 'The definitive account of British involvement in the modern movement.' - Deborah Lewittes, JSAH, 2005 'His [Gold's] discussions of the MARS Group's exhibition New Architecture (1938) and reconstruction scheme for London ... remain the most useful analyses of these activities.' - Deborah Lewittes, JSAH, 2005 'A crucial step toward an in-depth account of modern architecture in Britain.' - Deborah Lewittes, JSAH, 2005
