摘要:An innovative treatment of neuroscience in architecture and design analyzes the history of Western architecture from this new perspective. Hewitt emphasizes the necessity of hand drawing to establish the neurological connections that are essential for adaptive human design. This book revises the entire architecture curriculum, re-orienting effective teaching away from abstract, formal concerns and towards science-based interactive mechanisms. In doing so, Hewitt brings back older design and teaching methods that were obscured by recent fads that took over both education and practice in the past several decades.
