'I was entranced from the first paragraph. A magnificently readable survey of so much that in the human experience is profound and profoundly important to us ... Every page elicits at least one ah ooh or wow!, usually all three at once. Authoritative without being dry, academic or difficult, fluent and fun without being facetious or over simple As Far As The Eye Can See is a remarkable achievement.' -- Stephen Fry
'In his book, Sapiens, Yuval Noah Harari gave us a portrait of our broad family history. As Far as the Eye Can See paints a picture that is more intimate, closer both physically and in time.' -- **Tristan Gooley, author of The Natural Navigator**
'A wonderful, wide-ranging, totally gripping account of the evolution of seeing, from the firelight shadows of 1 million BC to the age of Netflix. Well worth casting your eye over, if only to find out how - and why - you are able to do that ...' -- Giles Coren, presenter, columnist
'From the first fires to the Facebook age, As Far as the Eye Can See takes us on an elegant, sweeping and wholly fascinating tour through human history.' -- Peter Moore, best-selling author of The Weather Experiment and Endeavour
