Editorial Reviews

Review

"The text does an excellent job demonstrating that art is part of our everyday life and a relevant part of all human cultures past and present. The point that art is a key part of human existence and experience is powerfully communicated here. Getting students to think in these terms is, to my mind, the first step in making them more interested in art because it answers the student question, "why should we care?"

4.0 out of 5 stars Fast shipping!, August 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I was surprised to receive my text book on monday when I had only purchased late afternoon the Friday before. I'm pleased with the book. I only wish they had put the edition number in the title too. I was a little surprised to receive the second edition. I needed the third but my professor doesn't mind the usage of a 2nd edition so I'm ok, but I can only imagine the hassle for a future customer. Over all, though, i am pleased with the book.
