Reviews

The book is highly recommended, not because its findings on beauty are definitive (the study of the brain and its functions is still an evolving field), but because its reading may spur a novel understanding of one of life's most fundamental experiences, beauty...It is a virtuoso performance. --Dan Vaillancourt, The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism
