Visual thinkers constitute a far greater proportion of the population than previously understood, she reveals, and a more varied one, from the purest "object visualizers" like Grandin herself, with their intuitive knack for engineering and problem-solving, to "visual spatials"-the abstract, mathematical thinkers who excel in pattern recognition and systemic thinking. With her genius for demystifying science, Grandin draws on cutting-edge research to take us inside visual thinking and its intuitive affinities for design, innovation, and problem-solving. She also makes us aware of how a world geared to the highly verbal screens out visual thinkers from an early age. Rather than continuing to waste their singular gifts, driving a collective loss in productivity and competitiveness, Grandin proposes new approaches to educating, parenting, employing, and collaborating with visual thinkers. In a highly competitive world, this important book helps us to see, we need every mind on board"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20221005. 650 $a Visual perception. 650 $a Art $x Psychological aspects. 650 1 $a Thought and thinking. 700 $a Lerner, Betsy, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l FFPC194 $d 20221028011443.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E3353578568511EDBB5E303432ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
