--------------------------------
25.3 The stationary world, p 256
What makes objects seem to stay in place no matter how the
viewer moves? To common sense this is no mystery: it's simply
that we're seeing all the time and keeping contact with the
world. [Note: commitment]

25.4 The sense of continuity, p 257
We notice change in spite of change, not because of it.

25.5 Expectations, p 258
Piaget found that it takes ten years or more for children to to
refine their abilities to imagine how the same scene will appear
from different viewpoints.

25.6 The frame idea, p 259
[History of the idea of frame: early 1970s -85; 'A framework for
