"The most widely read history of art in the English language for more than 80 years, GARDNER has built its stellar reputation on the inclusion of the most significant images and monuments, discussions of these images in their full historical and cultural context, reproductions of unsurpassed quality, scholarship that is up-to-date and deep, and more help for students and instructors than any other survey text. The 13th Edition adds to this heritage with new images and new full-color reconstructions, as well as a unique "scale" feature that helps students visualize the size of each work."

Plagiarism

http://www.plagiarism.org/

What is plagiarism?

“Plagiarism is a serious offense. It is plagiarism when one submits someone else's ideas, thoughts or words as his/hers without acknowledgment or citation. Thus, it is imperative that you cite your sources with footnotes or endnotes, and a bibliography or works-cited page if requested by your professor. If you quote directly, put the quoted words in quotation marks and cite the source in a note. If you summarize or paraphrase someone else's material or if you borrow a distinctive idea, even though you have not made a direct quote or even used any of the same words, you must still make an acknowledgement or citation in a note.”
