On Looking: Eleven Walks with Expert Eyes

An interesting read, unlike any other book I've read. Based on the description I received from a friend with regard to this book, I thought it was going to be different people all walking around the same block. It was instead, people walking around blocks that are close to them in proximity. But it's amazing how different the perceptions of people can be. The things that people notice are so different based on their own lived experiences, compared to someone else. It's like when you get a new car, or you're thinking about getting a new car. You never really saw that car before. But all of a sudden you notice that same make and model, wherever you go! Your perception of it is heightened, because of your exposure, your experience. Quite amazing, actually.
