Reviews

If the essay can be called an art form, Arts and the Man is certainly in a healthy state, for it fuses effectively the instrumental and the beautiful. It is a useful instrument, an introduction to art and philosophy that sends the reader to art itself, and it is written with a quiet lucidity and sincere love of beauty that give it the repose and balance and some of the perspective and refreshing quality of art itself. -- Mildred Boie - Forum
