Visual Intelligence: Sharpen Your Perception, Change Your Life by Amy E. Herman

BATB score: 3/10 🙈

This book covers only one premise: pay attention to details / look objectively and carefully (that's about it) 👀

Best to: a thick-ass book with numerous examples repeating the same premise above; this whole book can be summarized into a one-pager or a 18-mins TedTalk

BATB lingering thought: I hate the way this book is written. Reminds me of school where the teacher asks the class the extremely obvious annoying question "can anyone tell me what is in this picture?" and no one wants to answer because it's lame! and then the teacher answers his/herself even more lame

Best as: this book awakens your student-hood traumas; the book tries to make a complex big deal out of a very simple "the subtle art of not overlooking things"

Best for: you wanna bet? watch "a lesson on looking" TedTalk by Amy Herman at 2X speed in 7-minutes you will feel the anger I feel

Best quote: "We can survive and thrive today if we know how to see. To see what's there that others don't. To see what's not there that should be. To see the opportunity, the solution, the warning signs, the quickest way, the way out, the win. To see what matters."
