Rudolf Arnheim's *Visual Thinking* challenges the traditional separation of perception and reason, arguing that all thought is inherently visual. Arnheim explores how our perceptual responses structure events and form the basis of our ideas and language.

Drawing upon philosophy, psychology, studies of children's art, and scientific models, the book reveals the cognitive processes at play in visual perception, demonstrating their likeness to reasoning. Arnheim uses art and scientific examples to show the connection between seeing and thinking. He argues that artistic activity is a form of reasoning.

*Visual Thinking* argues for a more integrated understanding of the mind and its functions. The book seeks to bridge the gap between sense and thought, advocating for the importance of visual training in education and everyday life.
