Western Europeans were among the first, if not the first, to invent mechanical clocks, geometrically precise maps, double-entry bookkeeping, precise algebraic and musical notations, and perspective painting. More people in Western Europe thought quantitatively in the sixteenth century than in any other part of the world, enabling them to become the world's leaders. With amusing detail and historical anecdote, Alfred Crosby discusses the shift from qualitative to quantitative perception that occurred during the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. Alfred W.

Good quality and handy
Color: White, Size: 5 layer
Really pretty in person, just as the photo. It feels good quality, and the drawers slide easily. It’s amazing for organizing jewelry and pretty well spaced out.

Pretty jewelry box
Color: Pure White, Size: 3 layer
Perfect size and space. Love the clear top. It’s pretty. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is the drawer handles. There is not much to the handles. Hard to grip when you open a drawer.

Highly Recommend
Color: Pure White, Size: 4 layer
This jewelry box hold so much and looks so nice sitting out. My jewelry was exposed on hangers and trays before, so I am very happy to have it hidden and organized. I was hesitant to buy a jewelry box online but this one made me so glad that I did. I have not had any issues with it.
