    Booknews

    Arnold (biochemistry and molecular biology, U. of Kansas Medical Center) brings the rigor of scientific research to a study in art history. He identifies the most important questions surrounding van Gogh (wherever possible, starting with the artist's own comments and analyses), formulates working hypotheses, looks at available data, and presents some reasonable conclusions regarding van Gogh's physical and mental health and the implications for his work. A number of color reproductions grace the text. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
