Even if you don't like comics, it is an incredible take on how the brain processes images. Comics are art, more than anything else, about humans. And, this book is a work of art itself because it explains in detail how humans process images of other humans. I cannot recommend it enough.
And, if you are a computer scientist it provides an additional definition for closure, which was surprising to me.
