Gregory Ain: The Modern Home as Social Commentary (https://www.amazon.com/Gregory-Ain-Modern-Social-Commentary/dp/0847830624)
Good book on a great architect that got marginalized due to his socialist leanings and sympathy for the communist party back in the McCarthy era. He would have been invited to build a Case Study home but the publishers were afraid of being associated with communism.
Fascinating to read about why a lot of people were building these modernist houses beyond just the aesthetics.
