Aaron Kozbelt, Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture
A user-friendly introduction to the mainstream contemporary psychology of art.

Jay Friedenberg, PsychCritiques Shimamuras book is a must read for anyone with an interest in art and cognition. He deftly weaves important findings in these two fields together and integrates them in a way that hasnt been done yet so systematically. It is clearly written without technical jargon and can easily be enjoyed by those with or without a scientific background.

Arnold Wilkins, Perception His writing style is engaging so as to be uncritically absorbed by the nonspecialist. ... you will enjoy the eclecticism.
