What is Doors about?

<p>more Than 500 Striking Color Photographs Of Remarkable Doors From Around The World.</p> <h3>library Journal</h3> <p>this Work Features More Than 500 Color Photographs Of Doors (and Of Some Locks, Hardware, Surrounding Building Parts, And Openings) From The Earliest Buildings To The Present, Frequently Several To A Page. Graphic Designer Wilcox Is From Canada, But The Scope Of This Work Is Wide, With Most Of The Images Showing Western European Examples. The Arrangement Is Generally Chronological, But There Is No Clear Sequence To The Order Of Images, Which Come Mostly From Stock Photo Services. Overall, The Photos Are Very Saturated, And The Glossy Paper Is Not The Best. Scale Is Sometimes Hard To Judge, Particularly When Several Images Are On A Page, And For Identification Readers Must Rely On The Sometimes Sketchy Information In The List Of Plates And The Geographic Index At The Back Of The Book; There Is Nothing Beyond The Images On The Numbered Pages. Perhaps More Focus (on A Single Culture Or A Narrower Time Or Geographic Area) Might Have Given This Book A Stronger Raison D'&ecirc;tre Or A Clear Audience. Verdict Don't Open This One.&mdash;jack Perry Brown, Art Inst. Of Chic
