5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book
The author, in reviewing the evolution of consciousness in conjuction with that of art, is stretching the field of cognitive science to unprecedented heights. He champions the emerging idea that cognitive neuroscience can teach us something about almost everything.

3.0 out of 5 stars psychology of art
This author has a good knowledge of his subject. His earlier book is wonderful with insight. This book is a revamp of that material with a summary of some recent research. For my needs the first book is more to my taste.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book, August 2, 2009
This review is from: The Psychology of Art and the Evolution of the Conscious Brain (Mit Press/Bradford Books Series in Cognitive Psychology) (Hardcover)
The author, in reviewing the evolution of consciousness in conjuction with that of art, is stretching the field of cognitive science to unprecedented heights. He champions the emerging idea that cognitive neuroscience can teach us something about almost everything.

Also, I found this book far more useful to my research than books by Dutton, Dissanayake, Arnheim, etc on the same subject

3.0 out of 5 stars Not engaging at all, May 7, 2009
I haven't completely read the book, but by skimming through one or two chapters, the book looked very hard to read. The flow isn't set properly which makes it hard to read.
