From The Trailblazing, New York Times–bestselling Author Of Thinking In Pictures, A Landmark Book That Reveals, Celebrates, And Advocates For The Special Minds And Contributions Of Visual Thinkers A Quarter Of A Century After Her Memoir, Thinking In Pictures, Forever Changed How The World Understood Autism, Temple Grandin—the “anthropologist From Mars,” As Oliver Sacks Dubbed Her—transforms Our Understanding Of The Different Ways Our Brains Are Wired. 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, Invention, 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 Innovation, 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.
