Valuable information in a beautiful format
By curt dilger on November 20, 2008
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
Upon first inspection, I realized some of the material in this book had been drawn from Fred Dubery's fine publication Perspective and Other Drawing Systems. Then I saw the author had in fact worked with her teacher Mr. Dubery, so I am happy it has his blessing.

This is an excellent concise foundation course in seeing and perspective drawing (I especially appreciated the inclusion of rare four and five point systems), as well as an effective compendium of other projection systems. There is more substance in this book, more direct visual information, than many other bulkier, stuffier efforts. Why confuse the issue? Get to the point and pick this little book up.

Tricking the Eye
By Mike Mac on February 3, 2009
Format: Hardcover
A short book filled with some classic eye teasers, with information about the history of illusions, how perspective works, how people interpret and understand the world about them and drawings of that world. There's no great detail about all of this (not the intent), but there are a lot of ticklers to get you thinking. Good black and white illustrations, too. Not bad for a 58 page, 6X8 book!

This is a great little book, but for the price could be bigger, very small
By Aspiring Artist and Designer on February 1, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This book is really small, but it is a good reference for perspective BUT you already should know about the subject. Not a beginner book. It has some history lessons in it but I use it to make sure my perspective is correct in my art work. If it was bigger I would give it 5 stars and had a little more info learning about perspective. I certainly need my glasses when reading the little tiny print LOL!

With that said I am getting "Rulers and Compass, and "Celtic Pattern" as they also seem to be tutorials on these subjects on how to draw them correctly and how to use Rulers to make designs.

Perspective and Other Optical Illusions (Wooden Books)
By Catherine McAllister on March 6, 2013
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
The book is fine for as far as it goes. I was hoping for a book of optical illusions that was mainly pictures and explained what was seen and what some things represented. It is more of ~ this is how the illusion was created.
