Summary: Out of the Corner of Your Eye is about discovering the things that hide in plain sight: ripples in the sand, creeping hills, jumping spiders, singing sand, the sound of wind in poplars, life in the cracks of the sidewalk.

Summary: Not so long ago, we spent our hours enjoying life in a world of hunting and fishing, playing card games and working jigsaw puzzles, reading books and writing postcards, making music and listening to it. We played sports, we danced, we went to occasional movies and were enthralled. We sat and talked with our friends, we celebrated our holidays modestly, but well. Sometimes, we smoked and we...

We ignore lichens even though we see them growing on trees everywhere, and we may not even know the names of other things that occupy our world: ventifacts, grape ferns, and club mosses. This book will awaken the reader to...
