A picture shows exactly how things look. Well, it does most of the time. However, our brains use lines and angles to figure out whether buildings are bigger than each other or leaning in an odd way. This book shows readers exactly how pictures can be optical illusions and why they see what they do. With concepts of art, architecture, engineering, and brain science, the main content fits many parts of STEAM together, just like the puzzles inside the book.
