Details

"A wide-ranging history of looking . . . you will gaze at it in wonder"

The Guardian

"Brilliant . . . His taste is eclectic and his judgments precise and persuasive"

The New York Times

In The Story of Looking, Mark Cousins takes us on a lightning-bright tour – in words and images – through how our looking selves develop over the course of a lifetime, and the ways that looking has changed over the centuries. From great works of art to holiday photos, from cityscapes to cinema, through science and history, protest and propaganda, and the refusal to look, this book illuminates how we construct as well as receive the things we see.
