Book excerpt: At long last, the author of the beloved Populuxe turns his sights on that most confusing and confused decade of all, the 1970s. Thomas Hine scrutinises the looks and life of this complex era, climbing into the heads (and shoes!) of those who experienced the 1970s, exploring the designs of their homes, the styles of their fashion and the advertisements that set their desires on fire. A brilliantly original, wonderfully lively look at the me decade' through the eyes of the man House & Garden has called 'America's sharpest design critic'.'
