Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 1974. 64 pages, illustrations; 22 cm. First published, 1971. Tight, clean copy. Light shelfwear to wraps, age toning. *** "Order is a necessary condition for anything the human mind is to understand. Arrangements such as the layout of a city or building, a set of tools, a display of merchandise, the verbal exposition of facts or ideas, or a painting or piece of music are called orderly when an observer or listener can grasp their overall structure and the ramification of the structure in some detail. Order makes it possible to focus on what is alike and what is different, what belongs together and what is segregated. When nothing superfluous is included and nothing indispensable left out, one can understand the interrelation of the whole and its parts, as well as the hierarchic scale of importance and power by which some structural features are dominant, others subordinate. / Rudolf Arnheim is Professor Emeritus of the Psychology of Art at Harvard… Read more
