365 Illusions Page-A-Day Calendar 2004 (Page-A-Day(r) Calendars)

.:Description

Throw your brain a curve. Is it a frog in a pond—or a horse in its stable? Compiled by a neuroscientist who is one of the world’s leading authorities on illusions, this calendar features a year of full-color images that play tricks on the eye and mind, and kindle a heightened sense of wonder.Straight lines that bow and distort. Patterns that seem to shimmer. Architectural marvels possible only in a painting. And a Picasso-esque sculpture that, in the mirror, reflects a perfect piano.

AUTHOR BIO: Al Seckel, whose company, IllusionWorks, owns perhaps the greatest collection of illusions anywhere, is a neuroscientist at the California Institute of Technology.
