Gardner S Art Through the Ages: The Western Perspective (with Art Study CD-ROM and Infotrac) [With CDROM and Infotrac]

Came in a timely matter. Great price (could have paid over a hundred dollars for it). Was honest in description. Well packaged. Thank you so much!

I took one Art History course in my college career at Boston University and it was taught by Prof. Fred Kleiner, the author of this book. I clearly remember, over 25 years later, how wonderful and exciting Fred Kleiner's lectures in Art History were. When I go to museums I remember Prof. Kleiner's passionate, stirring descriptions of art and architecture. I was a business major, and his love for art really broke through and taught me to understand what is so wonderful about art. We also used Gardner's Art Through The Ages back in 1980, but it was before he was the author.

The book arrived in a very timely manner and it was in great condition -- no markings or bent pages. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

I purchased this book for my Art History class. Very interesting pictures along with non-boring texts. I really like the accompanied CD as it has all pictures from this text as well as other version of Gardner's art history books. Pictures are crystal clear. Although I finished that class long ago in 2002 and sold the book for school's book store with attractive price, I still have a copy of that CD and often reviewed whenever I saw some interesting stories of art history (such as female goddess from Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code). All pictures are under flash cards section. Besides a good text book, it should be kept as a reference.

The only reason I bought this book, was for my (a must to take) art history class. but then, I LOVE the material in the book, even though it was quite hard to study for the exams.
