ReFusing Fashion as well as Rei Kawakubo & Comme des Garcons by Deyan Sudjic are the best imo.
There's never really been a satisfactory book on all aspects of Comme des Garcons. Most rely on tired explanations and reiterations that you might as well have photocopied from one book to the next. It's obvious that few have wanted to delve into the original reaction (particularly from the press) when Kawakubo and Yamamoto began showing in Paris. Kawamura has danced around it at best. The short section in Style Deficit Disorder is even better than most.
