Eye Benders
Clive Gifford
- Reading
- Browse by curiosity rather than reading straight through: pause at a puzzle, compare what each of you notices, then look for its explanation. The listed topics make picking and choosing possible.
- Themes
- Seeing and believing: The book presents illusions and explains how eyes and brains interact in producing visual experiences. The stated approach is informational: it explores how illusions work and prompts reflection on whether sight can always be trusted.
- Worth knowing
- The focus is on images that can appear to move, change or conceal things. If visual tricks are frustrating for your reader, try a puzzle together and move on whenever they prefer.
