The Lewis Mumford Reader

“This book serves as an introduction to one of the most celebrated and disciplined minds of the twentieth century… This new book is a treasure-house for all those who think that the human mind can make a difference in the human situation.”
– Norman Cousins

“Lewis Mumford has had a deeper and more lasting impact on the thinking of his generation than almost any other figure in public life. That impact was not only intellectual, but moral… I am delighted with the collection.”
– Henry Steele Commager
