Some ways of thinking

Barbara Tversky

pp. 3-8

When thoughts overwhelm the mind, the mind puts them into the world. Talk, gesture, diagram, and sketch help not only to augment memory and information processing but also to structure thought and promote inferences and discovery. Research from many domains will be presented that highlights the similarities, differences, and special characteristics of each of these tools of thought.
