Description:
From the author of the best-selling Discoveries book Writing: The Story of Alphabets and Scripts, comes a new book on communication. People have always used signs and symbols to represent ideas and objects. Over time, these have multiplied into an immense network of images, figures, and emblems. How do signs and symbols represent such difficult concepts as quantity, danger, value, distance in time and space, and love? How do we come to understand pictograms, maps and charts, gestures, facial expressions, colors, and patterns? Find out in this fascinating book.
