The first edition of this book focused on the four main movements of Twentieth Century style between 1900 and 1980: Art Nouveau, Art Deco, the Austerity Binge" of the Forties and Fifties, and the explosion of daring flamboyancy of the Sixties and Seventies. Now, at the end of the millennium, and as we grapple with virtual reality and a new nostalgia, an account of the eighties and nineties completes this seamless survey of architecture, interiors, fashion, graphics and everyday objects which has long had a unique appeal for students, collectors and anyone interested in our abiding appetite for style."
