'A translation [by Janet Seligman] of the Bauhaus book of 1925-7, which tries to retain the flavour of the original by offering a "facsimile" treatment of the typography.... This is the first of his more important theoretical works, and offers a concise treatment of the themes that have come to occupy an important place in modern art theory. This volume contains a note by Hans M. Wingler and a postscript by Otto Stelzer' (dustwrapper blurb).
