This large coffee table size book offers 200 of the best full-color random dot stereograms I have seen!, 20 Mar 2006
By Lee Say Keng "KNOWLEDGE ADVENTURER/TECHNOLOGY... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Eye Tricks: You Won't Believe Your Eyes (Paperback)
3D visual illusions, or random dot stereograms as they more appropriately known, have fascinated me for many years, ever since my first encounter with one (black & white) during a PhotoReading workshop in early 1992. I remember very well that I could not see it the first time. I was really frustrated as many of my friends could see it. It eventually took me some months later to get it. The Aha experience was really exhilarating!
Since then, I have collected a lot of random stereograms, in book forms, large & small posters, & post cards. I have the entire collection of the Magic Eye series plus those early series published in Tokyo, Japan. I have them in colours as well as black & white.
I use a lot of them to demonstrate how the brain really works & its innate abilities in perceving the world in my creativity workshops.
Among my many collections, this large coffee table size book offers 200 of the best full-color random dot stereograms I have seen. A user guide appears in the front section & the end section of the book offers the corresponding revelations.
From sci-fi bizarre to serenely beautiful, I can safely say that each of the 200 designs can constitute a stand-alone work of art.
I strongly recommend readers to get one as soon as possible & be prepared to experience both rage & delight as you turn the pages.
For a truly scientific explanation on how the brain perceives random dot stereograms, please read Steven Pinker's wonderful book, 'How the Mind Works' (Chapter 4).

Fun Book, 15 July 2008
By Gary W. Priester "gwpriester" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Eye Tricks (Incredible) (Hardcover)
I really enjoyed this book. But then, why wouldn't I? It's my book and I am the author. :-)
I have two other books of stereograms you might like as well, Eye Tricks - Incredible 3D Stereograms (200 images), Arcturus Publishing and Hidden Treasures - 3D Stereograms (120 images), Sterling Publishing. The last two books were co-authored with Gene Levine, a world class stereogram artist.

My husband and I have also loved looking at optical illusions. Who knew they were strenghtening our eyes at the same time. Love this book of Eye Tricks!
