Synopsis:

'Malraux's great study of the visual arts is one of those rich spawning grounds of ideas which often cause such fury to the experts, such grateful and excited satisfaction to the amateurs... What Malraux has done, with the aid of more than 600 wonderfully chosen illustrations, is to propose a philosophy of all art rather in the manner of Arnold Toynbee's proposed philosophy of all history - a work of scholarship and imagination which has given me more to think about than any book I have read for years.' - Philip Toynbee, The Observer

The Bookworms Mission:

We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world. Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures. We have a passion for sustainability, being eco-friendly, eco-conscious and we aim to incorporate that into all that we do.
