The Humanistic tradition At first glance the book looks like a mess of pictures thrown in to fill space. Once you start reading the text the contents makes sense.I have actually come across some of the subject matter in my everyday life, a lot of things that would of gone unnoticed.
Nice !! Ordered and received the text within 7 days. Paid 1/2 of what I would have at the campus bookstore. New and in plastic wrap. 100% satisfied !!
I've never read this either.... However giving the book a one star review based on the fact that you had a bad experience with Amazon is unacceptable. Your poor rating hurts the author much more then it hurts Amazon. Many a casual browser will not even browse further past a one star rating. And despite your experience many a writer makes a great deal of money from sales on this site.
