The article provides information on the book "Modern Housing," by Catherine Bauer. This is a book for Americans, since it is concerned with the great step in civilization that left the U.S. out. During the twenties something phenomenal was occurring in Europe. Four and a half million families were put into a new kind of home. Bauer calls it the beginning of a "new physical environment." For the first time, the efforts of the finest statesmen, the best planners, the ablest architects, the biggest builders, and the most skilful financial jugglers were directed toward the houses of all the people. All this went under the name of "housing," and Bauer tells how it was done.
