I'm not positive but I think this may be that book I read a long time ago and loved as a kid because all the illusions were so cool and they were well explained. If this is the book I think it is, it was just so fun. Really bummed I'm almost positive it wasn't saved with the rest of the childhood books I've been trying to preserve. As an adult I know that reality, unfortunately(?), isn't that effective. Perception is everything... (#this-is-why-i-should-not-be-writing-reviews-in-the-wee-morning-hours)
