Quotes for Makers of Modern Architecture, Volumes I and II:
"Martin Filler's Makers of Modern Architecture...should eclipse other works in the field. He incisively places many 20th century architects and their work in a social context. He is also a refreshingly colorful, on-target observer, as when he limns, hilariously, the agonizing approach to (and his disappointment in) Richard Meier's Getty Center in Los Angeles, or notes that Louis Sullivan 'sometimes edged toward the crackpot in the relentless of his passionate obsessions.'" --House & Garden
"Martin Filler's book is liberating.... For those seeking a brilliant if potted guide to modern architecture, Filler fits the bill. His book bristles with bracing insights, incisive judgments, and wicked lines." --Robert Zaretsky, Houston Chronicle
"Filler's razor-sharp mind and sharper tongue set him apart. We gobble up what he thinks, as well as how he serves it up." --Robert Ivy, Architectural Record
