### ⭐ It's useless in the full sense of that meaning
*by G***E on January 21, 2016*

This edition is 34 pages of microscopic type, no intro and not a single illustration.  It's useless in the full sense of that meaning: Unreadable, without illustrations impossible to understand.  If it had cost me more I wouldn't be throwing it in the trash, but it is indeed trash.  The Dover edition is apparently the version to get, but in any case this is the version to avoid.It now occurs to me that one needs to be careful in purchasing replications of material in the public domain, like this ancient chestnut. Seemingly the publisher's intent was to use as little paper as possible, thus the micro-text and exclusion of the illustrations, or perhaps they had some kind of copyright associated with the artist himself.  In any case, a very poor mercantile decision, since it makes impossible the basic utility of the product: Readability and understanding.  Making shoes so cheap they can't be worn, isn't really "making shoes", is it?I requested a refund and it was given, but additionally I was told I need not send the product back. They apparently hold it in as high a value as I.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful, but be patient.
*by J***E on September 25, 2014*

This book is, so far, wonderful, the introduction is in depth and well written. The introduction maybe a bit tedious for those who are not interested in the history of how Dow came to write this book, but it is a well written piece. The book itself, offers the tools to see and understand the backbone of picture making in a clear and concise manner. It is not a "book" filled with lots of pictures, I have seen/purchased some books with many pictures but little content, if you want the "how to" manual for composing pictures, this is your book. Furthermore, if you are struggling with the format of this book, I suggest you start with Dorr Bothwell and Marlys Mayfiled's NOTAN, the Dark Light Principle of Design, and "Learning to Look" By Joshua C. Taylor, all are wonderful books that are rich with great information for an artist who has already enjoyed the delights of intuitive picture making, but now wish to understand the mechanics of how to create stronger compositions.

### ⭐ Rip off: A pamphlet version with no illustrations & very small text.
*by S***N on August 26, 2015*

A terrible edition- it is basically a pamphlet with page number markers for illustrations that are apparently in other editions. Extremely small text. Overall, a huge ripoff that will be returned. I thought this was the Dover edition, but looks to be a very inadequate print on demand. I am very disappointed in Amazon for putting this out. Not even worth one star
