new & revised edition. Man is a visual animal (about a half of our brain sensory stimulation travels over the optic nerves) and evolution has elevated vision to our primary sensing organ. However, visual can be blunted through disease or damage and this intriguing and now updated study provides long historical evidence of such damage through an examination of painting and the arts, illustrated. A clean fine hard cover book in fine dust jacket. Seller Inventory # 2022019
