Reviews
"A groundbreaking mission to find out what beauty is, how we perceive it, and the many ways it impacts our lives... [A] striking publication... Will stand as a lasting manifesto for their ambitious project."-- New Design "With an elegant slipcase, innovative graphics and page after page of stunning imagery, this is a book you can judge by its cover."-- Bookpage "A case study in beautiful design... [with] lively writing and unexpected narrative turns."-- AIGA - Eye on Design "Sagmeister and Walsh re-establish the definition of the word beauty and separate it from the negative connotations that have been misapplied to beautiful things; they trace not just the origins of beauty, but the evolution of its place in our world, from pre-civilization to today."-- AIGA Eye on Design "A book that is equal parts history, analysis, and visual splendor."-- Artsy "The book [...] is able to go into greater historical and anecdotal detail, while travelling even more widely in its provocative "Beauty Archive" section... A stylishly entertaining project."-- Crafts "Let the world howl till it's blue in the face. Stefan Sagmeister and Jessica Walsh have created quite a beaute with Beauty . In an era when humanity's old truths have been challenged by irony and kitsch, when cynicism has nearly rendered beauty obsolete, it's reassuring to find shameless devotees to classic ideals... Adorned in glorious trappings... Sagmeister and Walsh prove tangibly, convincingly, that beauty lies deeper than blemish-free skin. Beauty's testimonies are uncontested; its devotees zealous."-- PopMatters, "A groundbreaking mission to find out what beauty is, how we perceive it, and the many ways it impacts our lives...

The product itself came in its packaging and was new, not used at all. The packaging was not beat up or anything, safely delivered to my mailbox. No mix ups and zero stress with delivery. The price for the product is completely understandable for the product. I really appreciate the seller and I am very happy to have purchased through this seller. Completely trustable!
- m***4 (1606)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseLeaving positive feedback because 1) item was packed well & arrived as described 2) seller did give partial refund when subsequent price dropped below org purchase price. 3) communication was quick However, there was a downside to this transaction -item listed as in-stock but ended up waiting nearly a month for them to get it from their distributer then ship it to me (bought June 29th, arrived around July 21). Auction said 12-15 days. Better clarity would have prevented lot of frustration
