This is a very good book for neophytes and travelers.

This book adequately covers the concept of style and how to explore art by defining those elements which are similar and reflect the hand of an artist, a particular culture or movement. It is a great book to take on a journey by people who lack a back ground in art history but who would like to educate themselves and add a new dimension to their traveling lives. It is concise and laid out in an orderly manner. The little colored boxes which focus on a particular idea really enhance its value. The reproductions are better than average and the type faces are varied but not confusing. A magnifying glass might be helpful, but that does not detract from the quality of the product. This is a great traveling tool because it is compact. The only addition I would make would be tabs for easier research.
