Summary:
"Thames & Hudson's The history of art : a global view grew out of the need for a more global, inclusive way to teach the history of the world's art. The author team of eleven specialists, led by Jean Robertson and Deborah Hutton Shared the goal of bringing multiple perspectives to a worldwide narrative. The resulting survey represents every global region as an important part of a chronological, interwoven history that emphasizes cross-cultural connections, contrasts, and comparisons. Since the first edition was published in 2021, more than 300 colleges and universities in North America and around the world have assigned it. This second edition is a testament to the book's success. The feedback we have received from dozens of adopters and reviewers gave us direction about how to make the new edition even better. As the first major art history survey textbook written in the twenty-first century, The History of Art: A Global View is also the only survey that intentionally reflects the diversity of today's students, and equips them to study and understand the history of art in new and revealing ways."-- Preface.
