Pasztory's thesis is simple and asserts that humans create things (some of which modern Western society chooses to call "art") in order to work out ideas - that is, literally think with things. Pasztory draws on examples from many societies to argue that the art-making impulse is primarily cognitive and only secondarily aesthetic. She demonstrates that "art" always reflects the specific social context in which it is created, and that as societies become more complex, their art becomes more rarefied. -- Dustjacket
