"I have found that Gardner's Art Through the Ages has always provided the best contextual information... In particular I thought the section on Locke and Newton and the Philosophies was very useful.""I have taught with Janson and Stokstad as well. Gardner is hands down better.""MindTap assignments are tied to different works of art, and take students to a virtual museum where they can zoom in. The flashcards are so much more dynamic than an image on a flat text. Students are so inundated with media that having a textbook with flat images doesn't do anything for them. When you can turn something 360 degrees and zoom in, you often get a better view than you would in real life." Fred S. Kleiner, Ph.D. has been professor of art history and archeology at Boston University for four decades. He taught previously at University of Virginia and served as editor-in-chief of the American Journal of Archaeology. Acclaimed for inspiring lectures, Dr. Kleiner won Boston University's Metcalf Award for Excellence in Teaching, the College Prize for Undergraduate Advising in the Humanities, and the Distinguished Teaching Prize in the College of Arts and Sciences Honors Program. He is a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London as well as the Text and Academic Authors Association. In addition to this title, Dr. Kleiner authored several editions of ART THROUGH THE AGES: A CONCISE HISTORY (Cengage), A HISTORY OF ROMAN ART (Cengage), and more than 100 publications on Greek and Roman art and architecture. Dr. Kleiner earned his Ph.D. from Columbia University.
Expedient and good quality My son needed this for AP art history and we received a good copy very rapidlyThe 16th Edition is Worthy, and worth the money. Beautiful book. The scope is breathtaking, and the text and visuals pleasing. Helpful framework of world history. Concise summaries at the beginning and end of each chapter. My only quibble would be the omission of some artists who should be acknowledged, but aren't: Piero di Cosimo, Hockney, Yves Klein, Wayne Thiebaud, Joan Brown and a few others. Also, the chariot of Bacchus in Titian's Bacchus and Ariadne is driven by cheetahs, not leopards. Notwithstanding the nits, this is a Worthy book. It especially excels in the ancient art sections at the beginning. If the cost is prohibitive I highly recommend Art: The Definitive Visual Guide.Wonderful book Beautiful book. This will be kept after using for a college course!
