The watercolors of JMW Turner have the concise, simplified vision of contemporary art even though they were painted in the mid 1800's. This survey shows the progression of this master of light and delicate color from tightly delineated landscapes to the atmospheric , nearly abstract vistas of his late career. The reproductions are supported by quotes selected from writings contemporary to the paintings. This book provides an inspirational overview of the work of Turner and belongs in the library of the serious watercolor artist.

The description of this book on line make us think that it is much better than the reality. For example, the use of heparin is not recommended by any other author or used in any trial, and the therapeutic option for acute myocardial infarction is not discussed and the author do not show comparative data. In resume, if you expect a atualization, what you find is a copy of others textbooks and concepts defended by the author without support in by other authors. Don't by it!
