9780307889102 SOCIAL: WHY OUR BRAINS ARE WIRED TO CONNECT By MATTHEW D. LIEBERMAN Trade Paperback A groundbreaking book based on neuro research that reveals the human brain’s greatest strength is its passion for social networking. It is a more powerful driving force than our ability to solve math problems, our ability to recognize patterns, and our ability to memorize. From the time we are infants, our brains are constantly focused on the social world around us, because it is so critical to our well-being. Strong social connections bring us more happiness than money. As soon as our brain has completed a task, its default mode is to return to mastering the art of social connections.

9784861009334 INFOGRAPHICS DESIGN Paperback This book looks at the modes of “infographics” and “data visualizations” which are used to convey information in a way that is easier to understand. Only after you have clarified the objective, examined the information you want to communicate, and done the design do they begin to function as useful tools. Visualizing data leads to discoveries of hidden information and meanings contained within the data. Making it entertaining in a way that suits the information you want to be known will ensure that the information naturally spreads after it goes out into the world, showcasing “the power of communication”.
