Skilled Observer in Art and Science

Catalog description

The Skilled Observer in Art and Science demonstrates how artists and scientists use intuition, cognitive processing, and skills in pattern recognition to reveal the connective tissue that makes complex systems work. We live in time when science is distrusted, and art is mystified. The Skilled Observer in Art and Science explains why acumen in these areas is essential. It places emphasis on the neuroscience of human activity by looking at how art and science intersect in the biological sciences, physics, chemistry, mathematics, geoscience, medicine, and architecture.
