Look OutBy: Edward McPherson "A charming, idiosyncratic meditation on the human urge to see further, and more, in this cultural history of the 'aerial view' . . . McPherson makes an elliptical and enchanting case for reinserting wherever possible the ground level, human perspective . . . Redolent with insights into the ethical quandary of history making, as well as the authors own sense of awe at the full sweep of the human story, this is a wonder."
