β€œSpeaking With Pictures pushes boundaries of how we disseminate scientific content in unprecedented ways. Cohn’s innovative use of the comic format to illustrate theory and research is truly unique. The format allows him to illustrate complex arguments as they are being made. It is a must read for cognitive scientists interested in the psychology of visual languages and anyone who loves comics.”

More praise for Speaking with Pictures, my upcoming graphic novel on language, cognition, and visual communication. I'm counting down the days until this finally gets out and I can't wait...πŸ‘€ visuallanguagelab.com/sip

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.
