Making the unknowable a little less so
The power of design in education becomes apparent when attempting to comprehend mind-bending topics like quantum physics.
It is through visuals that the truth reveals itself (or at least one of the many possible truths... according to the "observer’s paradox")
This basic quick-read book is a good example.
