With her genius for demystifying science, Temple Grandin takes us inside the brains of these thinkers, who constitute a far greater proportion of the population than previously believed, from the photorealistic "object visualizers" like Grandin herself, with their intuitive knack for design and problem solving, to the abstract, mathematically inclined "visual spatial" thinkers. She makes us understand how a world increasingly geared to the verbal tends to sideline visual thinkers, and she proposes new approaches to educating, parenting, employing, and collaborating with them. In a highly competitive world, this important book helps us see, we need every mind on board.
