"Marshall Berman is the central writer about the urban experience and what it means to be modern – and he discusses the concept in this lecture. Marshall Berman rose to prominence with All That Is Solid Melts Into Air: The Experience of Modernity, a prophetic book which over the last quarter century has grown to seem increasingly relevant to the faster, more anxious and ironic times in which we live."
