520    "Internationally renowned and a crucial classroom text, 
       The Arts of China has been revised and expanded by the 
       late Michael Sullivan, with Shelagh Vainker. This new, 
       sixth, edition has an emphasis on Chinese art history, not
       as an assemblage of related topics, but as a continuous 
       story. With updated attributions and dating throughout and
       a revised bibliography, it reflects the latest 
       archaeological discoveries, as well as giving increased 
       attention to modern and contemporary art and to 
       calligraphy throughout China's history, with additional 
       discussions of work by women artists. Visual enhancements 
       include all new maps, and approximately one hundred new 
       color illustrations--bringing the total to well over four 
       hundred color illustrations. Written in the engaging and 
       lucid style that is Sullivan's hallmark, The Arts of China
       is readily accessible to general readers as well as to 
       serious students of art history. Sullivan's approach 
       remains true to the way the Chinese themselves view art, 
       providing readers with a sense of the sweep of history 
       through China's dynasties. This organizational strategy 
       makes it easy for readers to understand the distinct 
       characteristics of each period of art and to gain a 
       clearer view of how Chinese art has changed in relation to
       its historical context. With many improvements that bring 
       it fully up to date, The Arts of China will remain the 
       most comprehensive and widely read introduction to the 
       history of Chinese art." -- Publisher's description
