Umberto Eco - philosopher, linguist, one of the most widely read contemporary writers, author of the famous novel "The Name of the Rose" - in this album traces how the canons of beauty changed in different centuries in different countries, discusses the relationship of beauty with good, with desire, with ugliness. The scientist's reflections are complemented by statements of great philosophers - from Aristotle and Plato to Nietzsche and Freud.

The book is illustrated with examples from painting, architecture, sculpture, as well as from movies, television, and even advertising.
