Description
A classic in its field, In the Mind's Eye still stands alone as a uniquely compelling argument for the importance of visual thinking as well as the high creative potential of individuals with dyslexia or other learning difficulties. Thomas G. West features eleven portraits of famous individuals with learning difficulties (including Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison), as well as profiles of two dyslexic scientists known for their ability to generate, in quite different fields, powerful but unexpected findings.
