Synopsis: James Elkins's How to Use Your Eyes invites us to look at--and maybe to see for the first time--the world around us with breathtaking results. Here are the common artifacts of life often misunderstood and largely ignored brought into striking focus. With the discerning eye of a painter and the zeal of a detective Elkins explores complicated things like mandalas the periodic table or a hieroglyph remaking the world into a treasure box of observations--eccentric ordinary marvelous.
