Book Details
First Sentence
"today, the "big man" view was and is created by constructing large-scale images of rulers, such as the colossal statuary of ancient kings and modern despots; the viewer is forced to "look upon" the works of the mighty from an insect's viewpoint. The effect is owed, perhaps, to the universal fact that all people spend the early years of their lives being smaller and shorter in stature than adults on whom they are dependent for sustenance and direction."
