Summary:"Learning to Look is a wandering journey through the nature of art--and the ways it can transform us, if we let it. Author of Infinite Baseball, Alva Noë presents a collection of short, stimulating essays that explore how we experience art and what it means to be an "observer." Experiencing art--letting it do its work on us--takes thought, attention, and focus. It requires creation, even from the beholder. And it is in this process of confrontation and reorganization that artworks can lead us to remake ourselves."--From dust jacket
