Reviews

'This is an outstanding addition to the Wright literature. It is well illustrated throughout, with a wealth of new Japanese material as well as the author's own analytical diagrams, and comprehensively referenced. It deserves to be very widely read, not only by those interested in Wright, but as a study of the creative process and the fruitful interaction of two great cultures.' - The Architects' Journal
