Synopsis
Prepare to be amazed Inside the covers of this incredible, colorful collection are hundreds of the world's most powerful optical illusions. They're beautiful to behold, and stunning in their trickery. Some of the mind-boggling images seem to spring into action, vibrating, pulsing, and spinning like a hula hoop. Other ambiguous illusions feature two subjects in one: the fun is in finding them both in the single picture--including a mouse playing hide and seek in a cat's face and a strange desert mirage where palm trees imperceptibly morph into camels. And still more, like "The Impossible Terrace," which couldn't exist off the page: just try to figure out if you're viewing the space from above or below. Every one is astonishing., Prepare to be amazed! Inside the covers of this incredible, colorful collection are hundreds of the world's most powerful optical illusions.

    This purchase came from a small business, which I love to support! Rachel was great with communication after the sale and with the package. To protect the thin paperback that I bought, it was placed in a plastic protector then inside a cardboard envelope to protect it from being bent during shipping. They went one step further and placed it in a plastic mailer that cushioned the book and gave it protection from the weather. The actual book was in good shape. It’s an early 70s reader!

    I cannot say enough about this seller. It was my first purchase with the seller and it was a relatively inexpensive magazine. Yet, the seller was very responsive to my multiple questions on price and quality. The magazine was in perfect condition and was very reasonably priced. After I purchased it, the seller mailed it right away. The magazine was in perfect condition as represented and was expertly packaged. I cannot wait to do business with her again.

    Very reputable seller. Book as described. Shipping and packaging were very impressive. Fair price given the fact that this book was hard to find/rare. This seller goes over, above and beyond. Thank you!!
