About the author

My name is Gianni A. Sarcone. I am a prolific author and visual artist keen about communication. Many international galleries, publishers and agencies have appreciated, used and enjoyed my work to capture the attention and entertain people all around the world. I love to integrate my work with different disciplines and to apply it to all the aspects of our everyday life. I have written many books in several languages on visual thinking, art education, and on the mechanism of vision. What drives me more than anything else is the desire to show and share the wonder and the magic of the world we live in.

It has a nice variety of optical illusions. I would have loved to have seen some explanations for why some of them work the way they do.

I really like optical illusions and so do many of my students. This slim book is in color which is often a rarity for optical illusions. There is a great variety of types and short explanations in the back.

Good for kids (I suppose), however a much better option would to buy a different book that is larger in size to make viewing the allusions easier, and it would help if you want to share the book and read it with someone else. Know your target market doofuses!
