Summary

"From Edwardian elegance to a stripped-down, plugged-in electronic world; from a house of many rooms to open-space living in a city loft; from the utter luxury of servants to the simple joy of do-it-yourself - from 1901 to 1980 the many changes in the way we live have been extraordinary. This book is about these changes. There are eight chapters on the eight decades of the century. Each decade has its own message about living at the time. "
