Rating: 1 of 5
An unfortunately complex and annoying book, trying to get at the difference between seeing, perceiving and experiencing. It has the noble goal of saying something philosophical about the nature of consciousness. Maybe I've been out of grad school too long at this point, but this 160 page book read like 320 pages because you have to read every page twice.
In this day and age, that just shouldn't be necessary. Skip it.
