The Mind's Eye: Nonverbal Thought in Technology.
Ferguson, Eugene S.
Educational Horizons, v57 n1 p42-46 Fall 1978
Much of the creative thought of the designers of our technology is nonverbal; since the Renaissance, it has relied on objects and drawings, not descriptions. Because nonverbal thought is closer to art than science, there is a risk that it will be ignored in engineering education. (Author/SJL)
