One of the most original writers around, Hannah Fry has had a profound impact on my thinking. In a world filled with numerous books promising to enhance our intelligence and rationality, Fry's work stands out as a unique and thought-provoking exploration. Why think in pictures? Short answer: because words often struggle to convey the full essence of ideas. While many smart-thinking books promise a smarter and more logical version of ourselves, it remains to be seen if they have truly succeeded in revolutionizing our reasoning.

Michael Blastland's book, Thinking in Pictures, offers a fascinating insight into the power of illustrations and photographs in enhancing our understanding and reasoning. Part guide, part gallery, this book provides a brilliantly original and witty introduction to smart thinking, offering practical tips on how to use it and when to question its effectiveness. Whether you're seeking to make sense of a complex world or simply looking for fresh approaches to problem-solving, Thinking in Pictures is a must-read for anyone interested in developing a more analytical and insightful mindset.
