Thinking without Words provides a challenging new theory of the nature of non-linguistic thought. Many scientific disciplines treat non-linguistic creatures as thinkers, explaining their behavior in terms of their thoughts about themselves and about the environment. But this theorizing has proceeded without any clear account of the types of thinking available to non-linguistic ...(展开全部)

Proofs without words are generally pictures or diagrams that help the reader see why a particular mathematical statement may be true, and how one could begin to go about proving it. While in some proofs without words an equation or two may appear to help guide that process, the emphasis is clearly on providing visual clues to stimulate mathematical thought.

从文革时期开始，徐冰就以自刻字的方式，开始制作无人能看懂的方块字。历时四年，1987年完成。他一共制作了4000多个新的“汉字”，并且用这些字印成了《析世鉴》（又称《天书》），总共由连续的宣纸和大张的挂幅，以及1200册线装书组成。所有的文字按照宋式排版方式制作而成。 1997年徐冰又发明了英文书法，将26个字母化作常见的字符，最终变成一个成行的表达方式。这次和“天书”不一样的是，徐冰的英文书法是真正可以用于书写的文字。

Blink is about the first two seconds of looking--the decisive glance that knows in an instant. Gladwell, the best-selling author of The Tipping Point, campaigns for snap judgments and mind reading with a gift for translating research into splendid storytelling. Building his case with scenes from a marriage, heart attack triage, speed dating, choking on the golf course, selling ...(展开全部)
