Recenzii
'A revealing analysis of Viennese thinker whose enthusiasm for western modernity - which for him ws exemplified by the manners and attire of the English gentleman - was curiously old-fashioned.' - Architecture Today
'This is an excellent book that will further expand our understanding of the peculiarities of Viennese modernism and serve a new generation of students and scholars alike.' - The Art Book
'Janet Stewart's fascinating new study finally provides a corrective to this limited and specialized reception of Loos.' - Modernism/Modernity
'Presents perhaps the most complete and sharply drawn picture to date in English of Loos as cultural critic.' - Harvard Design Magazine
