From the dawn of time to the present; from the days of mammoth hunting to the era of Scud-busting; pictures of war constitute the most persistent genre of images human beings have created. In fact; human beings are the only creatures who engage in these two activities--organized violence and the making of pictorial images--and the author shows how both art and war emerge from the same source: the hunters eye.David D. Perlmutters Visions of War explores and analyzes the thirteen thousand-year legacy of pictures of war from various cultures over the centuries; from the Stone Age cave paintings and monumental sculpture of the ancient Near East to the art of the classical period and the Middle Ages; from pre-contact Mesoamerican imagery to Napoleonic propaganda and totalitarian art and on to the instantaneous images of the Gulf War.

This contains sheet music of songs not in the Broadway show and does not include all the songs from the show.By J Adrian VerkouterenThis book contains sheet music from the pre-Broadway premier of WAITRESS album Ms. Bareilles released. So some of the songs are from the album not the show; and some of the songs from the show and its cast album are not included. Although I would love to have had more of the songs from the show; I was very happy with the songs in the book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. There are about three great songs and the rest like standard pop/dance songsBy ReviewsCountThere are about three great songs and the rest like standard pop/dance songs; but teens enjoy that and I appreciated the three.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. LOVE her musicBy Melissa H.LOVE her music. So fun to have the sheet music to these songs. However; partly because the melody line is included throughout the accompaniment; and partly because a lot of these songs just dont translate well to piano-only; Im giving this 4 stars.
