VizThink Blog. Digital Roam. My new book is coming Nov. 1, 2011. It's got an epic cast of characters from business, science, politics, music, technology, books, and comedy. (See the full cast list here.) Let me give you the quick, strictly no blah-blah-blah summary: Ever been to so many meetings that you couldn’t get your work done? Ever fallen asleep during a bullet-point presentation? Ever watched the news and ended up knowing less? The Problem: We talk so much that we don’t think very well. Powerful as words are, we fool ourselves when we think our words alone can detect, describe, and defuse the multifaceted problems of today. The Solution: This book offers a way out of blah-blah-blah. In my first book, The Back of the Napkin, I showed readers how to solve problems and sell ideas by drawing simple pictures.

The Destination: We never have to look at blah-blah-blah the same way. Through Vivid Thinking, we can make the most complicated subjects suddenly crystal clear.
