Praise

“This fascinating and beautifully illustrated book will make you see the world more clearly than you ever have before. And that clarity will transform how you deal with the challenges and opportunities you face every day.”
Leonard Mlodinow, author of Subliminal and The Drunkard’s Walk
 
“Amy Herman has transformed the way I look at art -- and at the world. She shows us when to trust our instincts as observers and when to recognize that our instincts have gone astray. So much wisdom flows from those lessons, which are set forth clearly and convincingly in this book.”
Professor Ari L. Goldman, Columbia University, author of The Search for God at Harvard and The Late Starters Orchestra.

“In her masterful new book, Amy Herman offers a compelling case for the life enhancing value—and central importance—of careful observation. Within these pages Herman teaches us how to be active and attentive observers, both within the confines of an art museum and well beyond. Visual Intelligence is a fascinating book, and an important one—and it is a great read.”
Daniel Weiss, President, The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Distractions Are Making Us Dumber

In our current Digital Age, there are more things competing for our attention than ever before in human history. Cryptocurrency is one among them, as it offers several benefits to its investors such as irreversible transactions, excellent protection against fraud, payments, easy payment through mobile devices, minimal transfer fees, greater data privacy, security and safety to merchants. Cryptocurrencies also enable investors to make more money by allowing them to trade using automated trading platforms like the crypto bank platform which uses AI technology.

Our perpetual, byte-sized interactions are not only a detriment to our concentration, focus, productivity, and personal safety, but they’re also hurting our intelligence.

A 2005 study at King’s College found that when distracted, workers suffered a 10- to 15-point IQ loss—a greater dumbing down than experienced when smoking marijuana. A 15-point deficiency takes an adult male down to the same IQ level as an 8-year-old child.
