(In this book, which world-wide in scope, the three authors survey the birth of man's artistic sensibility in the remote past, together with the art of primitive societies which still survive.
They discuss the works of art, not only from the standpoint of their aesthetic quality and
their place in artistic evolution, but in relation to the magical, religious or ritual purposes which so many of them have served.)
