'A thing of beauty' - Sunday Times 'Magnificently illustrated, this is art history at its most eye-popping and also - thanks to philosophical forays in which Hyman explores identity and the friction between self and society - its most brain-tickling' - Observer (Peter Conrad's Books of the Year) 'Magnificent ... will change forever our sense of the story of modern art ' - Gabriel Josipovici 'Highly original ... there are brilliant insights and connections on every page' - David Bindman 'Wonderfully concrete in detail and wide-ranging in scope, Timothy Hyman's 'The World New Made' constructs a new and convincing scenario for the history of twentieth-century painting' - Linda Nochlin 'It's time that the balance was redressed, and Timothy Hyman's scholarly and enjoyable book sets about the task with great vigour. The quality of the writing makes the reader want to look again and more closely at the artists discussed' - The Spectator 'Brings together decades of critical viewing and reading into a richly thoughtful text' - Times Literary Supplement
