Review: Bayley is back and better than ever - I enjoyed this book as much, if not more than Bayley's original masterpiece, Taste. It's important to note that this book is not an attempt to define ugliness, but to examine our relationship with ugliness throughout history. It's a fantastically well designed book, featuring full page photographic plates illustrating Bayley's witty and insightful points. The epic shade throwing found in Taste is still here, but tempered a bit. Is Bayley mellowing in his old age? I do wish that the author had been a little more declarative about what he actually believes and who he agrees with, but that ambiguity didn't diminish the amount it made me think and examine our culture through his lens.
Review: cool, new - Each page is a mini dive into a question. Odd, different, cool, new, mind opening. I liked the odd nature and nonconventional style of this book. It's one of my favorites to look at culture and production.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bayley is back and better than ever
*by Z***N on August 5, 2015*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ cool, new
*by S***N on October 26, 2016*

Each page is a mini dive into a question. Odd, different, cool, new, mind opening. I liked the odd nature and nonconventional style of this book. It's one of my favorites to look at culture and production.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Familiar
*by P***L on October 29, 2013*

I rather enjoyed this lively book, not least because it mentions I.H. 35, the highway that runs from Laredo, Texas to Duluth, Minnesota--and not entirely in an uncomplimentary fashion. The book has an attention-grabbing blend of old and new, with clever commentary.
