In this remarkable and thorough book, Edward Casey again demonstrates why he is one of the most agile and penetrating practitioners of phenomenology working today., "In this remarkable and thorough book, Edward Casey again demonstrates why he is one of the most agile and penetrating practitioners of phenomenology working today." -- Stephen Watson, University of Notre Dame, The World at a Glance is... a challenging book, in every positive sense of the word.... The book's analyses are simultaneously wide-ranging and incredibly detailed, reflecting, no doubt intentionally, the very diversity and singularity of its subject matter....

Looking at familiar, everyday events as well as examples from ancient history, linguistics, literature, art, photography, and ethics, Casey develops a narrative that will fascinate anyone interested in philosophy, psychology, and their interaction in the construction of the perceptual world.
