Visual thinking / Rudolf Arnheim. - First Edition, Thirty-Fifth Anniversary Printing. - [S.l.] : University of California Press, 2004. - 352 p. ; 23 cm.

Deluxe Edition.

For thirty-five years Visual Thinking has been the gold standard for art educators, psychologists, and general readers alike. In this seminal work, Arnheim, author of The Dynamics of Architectural Form, Film as Art, Toward a Psychology of Art, and Art and Visual Perception, asserts that all thinking (not just thinking related to art) is basically perceptual in nature, and that the ancient dichotomy between seeing and thinking, between perceiving and reasoning, is false and misleading. An indis-pensable tool for students and for those interested in the arts.
