English review عربي تقييم
كيف تقرأ كتابًا من سلسلة دي كي شاهد عيان؟ 10% تقرأ النص المتوفر القليل، و90% تتأمل في الصور. في الواقع، لولا تأمل هذه الصور، لاستغرق قراءة صفحة واحدة دقيقة واحدة من الزمن! هذه الكتب تتمحور حول الصور، وهو ما احبه في هذه السلسلة.
مزايا الكتاب:
كثرة الصور، كما هو متوقع من سلسلة DK Eyewitness.
عيوب الكتاب:
تحيز واضح (كما هو متوقع من هذه السلسلة، فقد لاحظت ذلك في بعض كتبها).
نقص في المعلومات حول جوانب أساسية من ثقافة الفروسية (مثال: غطاء العينين للحصان).
How to “read” a DK Eyewitness book? You 10% read the few text available, 90% observe the images. Indeed, if it’s not for the observing of such images then it’ll take a minute to finish each page! These books are about images, which is why I love these books.
Book’s pros:
Lots of images as is expected from a DK Eyewitness book.
Book’s cons:
Biassness, lots of it (as also expected from these series as I’ve noticed with a couple of their books when history is part of the story)
Lack of information on essential aspects of equestrian culture (example: the blinders)
