Three primary aspects of the aesthetic concept are discussed: aesthetics and the human senses, aesthetics as thinking about the arts, and aesthetics as the science of beauty. Additional factors underlying the concept of aesthetics include: nature as an underlying force; cultural, social and economic phenomena as determiners of aesthetic expression; and aesthetics of American city life.
