The Art of the Possible: A Compassionate Approach to Understanding the Way People Think Learn and C

Wouldn't it be grand if everyone's mind came with an owner's manual? The Art of the Possible might be the next best thing. Dawna Markova uses six combinations of our main information receivers-audio, visual and kinesthetic (feel)-to describe the basic perceptual modes by which we process information and experience the world. For example, if you best absorb information visually, ponder over it with your mind's voice and output it by building or designing something, you're a VAK (visual input, audio processing, kinesthetic output). The book itself even utilizes all the modes so that everyone can reap its full benefits. Identifying our own style can help each of us maximize our abilities and minimize our frustration. Understanding these variations can be an invaluable tool for teaching and relating to others. -- From The WomanSource Catalog & Review: Tools for Connecting the Community for Women; review by Ilene Rosoff
