The author, who is South African, and has been much occupied in his earlier publications with matters of social justice, is here concerned to use the same context in order to discuss aesthetic questions. The most helpful and interesting part of this book is the study of and analysis of South African art and society, which is a new and original and a very welcome addition to the subject.
