{"product_id":"a-thousand-words-jonathan-salem-baskin-9780985182427","title":"A Thousand Words: Why We Must Fight the Tyranny of Brief, Vague \u0026 Incomplete","description":"This quick read draws on the science of the mind, ancient civilizations, mobile tech, Shakespeare, funny TV commercials, and a host of other diverse topics to explain why we prefer pictures over words, brevity over length and depth, and are thereby willingly giving up our ability to reach consensus and collaboration on any constructive action. Baskin makes a novel, contrarian conclusion come to life with illustrative examples, intriguing facts, and not a little bit of wit: it's not that a picture tells a thousand words, but rather we need a thousand words to understand most pictures. His insights have implications for how brands communicate with their markets, and how individuals should interpret those communications.Read this book and you'll never Tweet the same again...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Salem Baskin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0985182423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780985182427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shadows on the Cave Wall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.28d","brand":"Jonathan Salem Baskin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48441485066495,"sku":"9780985182427","price":6.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4fb74f80-8a75-435b-8d56-258f1baa1ed0.jpg?v=1777191202","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-thousand-words-jonathan-salem-baskin-9780985182427","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
