Visible Magic : The Art of Optical Illusions by Robert Ausbourne - Paperback

Optical illusions, a magical melding of science and art, appeal to all ages. This lavish full-color book looks at both the science (the peculiarities of human vision that make illusions possible) and the art (famous deceptive images and their creators). Included are a wide variety of eye-fooling tricks, including those practiced by Mother Nature herself.
