Editorial Reviews
Paul Goldberger, New York Times Book Review
"Hines's book is a sensitive, forthright and eloquently written tribute to Neutra, written with admiration but without illusion."

Martin Filler, Art in America
"Hines's approach to architectural history is that of social and historical interpretation. . . . [His] raconteurial gifts make this the most eminently readable architectural biography in recent years. But his firm command of the documentary material both archival and public, written and oral on Neutra's life and career gives the narrative a convincing authority."
