About this title

Review

It is a very rich book. The author obviously has much knowledge and is impassioned about his text.

-Marsha Anderson, North Lake College

[The 'We Form Art' and 'Art Forms Us' boxes] are such a critical tool in trying to illustrate the relevance of art to those that are not art majors.

-Paul Benero, Tarrant County College

Ideas like catching Part openers, the brief timeline and the learning objectives help get the reader oriented toward deciphering what they are reading about. Including an iconic work along with more obscure ones helps students start in a comfort zone from which they will branch out.

-Joan Bontempo, Hagerstwon Community College

The content plan for the 11th edition truly takes another look at this excellent textbook with the goal of responding even more effectively to the needs of 21st century teachers and learners.

-Timothy Jones, Oklahoma City Community College/ University of Oklahoma
