too pricy, and not very easy to useJuly 13, 2008 This book is good for one reason, it contains brief history of world art and many illustration and photos of its work. It is also in correct order as art evolute. However, I wish it just came in one form of book rather two spread books in one cheap case. It was not necessary, I do not want to loose one book, over the other. Its hard to read when there are two books split.

I brought this book for an art history class I'm taking. I like the format of the book. I also have found it easy to read and not boring.
Art History Vol. IAugust 22, 2007 This book was great! The major ancient civilizations were covered. The photos and drawings are fantastic. Lacking are the non-European civilizations (such as African art) in the amount of information provided. Some civilizations are a mere one or two paragraphs in length before a new topic is introduced.
good bookJune 5, 2007 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
I had to buy this book for an Art History class and I find it to be very informative, considering I had no education in the evolution of art. Would recommend for anyone interested in seeing how art evolved into what it is today.
