It was a real page-turning adventure through how the mind perceives vision and how sometimes it doesn't. -------------- This was great - not at all dry - amazing writing. Mike May was blinded by a chemical explosion at age 3. After a lifetime of blindness, he is offered the opprotunity to see. Really interesting to think about the subject of vision. </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> <div id="sideinfo"> <div id="coverimage"> <img src="http://www.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781400063352/mc.gif&upc=&oclc=&client=linct" alt="Large Cover Image"></img> </div> </div> </div> <div> <br /> <a href="http://elibrary.lincnet.info/uhtbin/cgisirsi.exe/x/0/0/57/108?user_id=webserver&password=&item_id=31531003157895" target="_blank">Place Hold</a> </div> <br /> </div> </body> <br /> <div id="availability"> <table class="availtable" xmlns=""> <tr> <td class="holdingsheader">Library</td> <td class="holdingsheader"> Call # </td> <td class="holdingsheader"> <strong>Copies</strong> </td> <td class="holdingsheader"> Material </td> <td class="holdingsheader"> Location </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> St. Charles </td> <td>362.41 KUR </td> <td> <strong>NONFICTION </strong> </td> <td>Adult Collection </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> St. Charles </td> <td>362.41 KUR</td> <td> <strong>NONFICTION </strong> </td> <td>Adult Collection </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> Batavia </td> <td>362.41 KUR </td> <td> <strong>NONFICTION </strong> </td> <td>Adult Non-fiction </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> Bloomingdale </td> <td>B MAY </td> <td> <strong>BOOK </strong> </td> <td>Adult Biographies </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> Franklin Park </td> <td>362.41 KUR </td> <td> <strong>NONFICTION </strong> </td> <td>Adult Collection </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> Geneva </td> <td>362.41 KUR </td> <td> <strong>BOOK </strong> </td> <td>Adult Non-fiction </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> Glen Ellyn </td> <td>362.41092 KUR </td> <td> <strong>NONFICTION </strong> </td> <td>Adult Non-fiction </td> </tr> <tr class="oddtrue"> <td> Itasca </td> <td>362.41 KUR </td> <td> <strong>NONFICTION </strong> </td> <td>Adult Non-fiction </td> </tr> </table> </div> <div id="accessible_syndeticsice"> <br xmlns="" /> <div id="syndeticsice_toc" style="
