Really great stuff to power your visual, perceptual thinking!

I have always enjoyed reading - and playing around with the ideas from - Kurt Hank's books. I have all his books, which include Rapid Viz, Draw!, The Change Navigator, Wake Up Your Creative Genius, Up Your Productivity. Like his other books, this book is very well-illustrated, conceptually & graphically, with the following key chapters: - Introduction: What is Design? - Drawing; - Design; - Thinking; - Problem Solving; - Ideation; It is packed with ideas, games, puzzles & exercises. Although it is written for the novice designer, it nevertheless provides step by step approach to the practical strategies of seeing, thinking, drawing an designing your ideas - and concepts - visually and in 3D. It is not a book just for reading. You have to work with it. I must say: This book is really great stuff!
