The back of the napkin

Hi,

today I want recommend you a book about solving problems and selling ideas with pictures. "The Back of the Napkin" by Dan Roam describes a new way of thinking - the visual thinking. On the one hand the book concentrates on possible methods to solve problems with visual thinking on the other hand the book also describes how the solutions can be presented to the audience.
(@Techtalker: The book is available in the foyer @ TTV)

At the MIX 08 conference Dan Roam talked about it and the video is available online. The basics of the book are covered in this workshop.

The visualization of the tools/methods provided in the book are also available on the website.

If somebody used this techniques to solve or present a problem it would be nice to hear something about your experiences.

Br, Claudia

  1. I second this recommendation. I read the book last year. It helps me tremendously to prepare presentations and to structure my thought.
