Publisher Synopsis
"A major contribution to the literature of aesthetic education. It gathers together many significant papers in aesthetics and arts education, papers that are not readily available to educators since they are the product of both American and British thinkers. This provides a source of authoritative guidance needed in this period of transition in arts education." -- George Geahigan, coordinator of art education, department of creative arts, Purdue University Read more...
