Summary

COI synopsis: Traffic signs are amongst the warnings we have to take in very quickly in modern life. Primitive man could see his natural enemies quite adequately out of the corner of his eye, but our un-natural enemies come at us from all directions. Psychological research is helping us to see what we must see for our own safety.
