Graphicacy and Culture: Refocusing on visual learning
Main Article Content
Abstract
I was delighted to be asked to review Xenia Denos’ book,
based as it is on the literature review of her Ph.D. thesis
for which I was external examiner. In turn, I was honoured
to be asked to perform this role, as I had followed with
interest and growing admiration the development of
Xenia’s research from her first conference presentation
onwards. First of all, therefore, I would like to congratulate
her on the publication of this book which adds
considerably to our knowledge of research into graphicacy
and should become essential reading for anyone with a
deep interest in the field. This book should be of
considerable interest and importance to art educators and
to anyone interested in overall child development, as well
as to those within the design and technology world.
