Why are humans the only species with whites in their eyes? Did you know that the world we see is actually a half-second behind the real world? And that wasps can't see at all?
Be prepared to have your eyes opened! In a spellbinding mix of scientific research, mathematics, philosophy, history, neuroscience, anecdote and language theory, The Eye unravels the age-old mysteries of how and why we see the way we do.
Simon Ings tells the eye's whole story for the very first time. His compelling look at a huge range of scientific theories, myths and personal experiences is complemented by illustrated visual conundrums and enigmas. Seriously interesting and interestingly fun, The Eye is popular science of the highest order.
