A booklet that explores the science of seeing (‘A Sense of Sight’), and popular beliefs and folklore about how we see (‘A Train of Thought’).

The two topics are differentiated in the page spread by being arranged upside-down to the other, while the centre of the booklet presents in comic-book form, a scientific explanation of what happens when a photon—a basic particle of light energy—enters the eyeball.
