The book is attractive because it is well written and concise on
the one hand and theory-oriented and adequately documented on the
other. It contains approximately 240 relevant references and useful
author and subject indexes. Moreover, it is carefully edited and
illustrated. Admirably, and most importantly, Maureen Cox displays
her research inclination in every chapter by questioning the
adequacy of earlier studies, by considering alternative
explanations and by refraining from easy generalisations and
sweeping statements. This serves to recommend her book to
developmental psychologists, educators, and those interested in
cultural and developmental aspects of graphic art. - Bulletin of
the International Graphonomics Society
This book is a comprehensive review of North American and European
