Description

Diagrams and diagrammatic representations in the form of notes, tables, schemata, graphs, drawings and maps pervade scientific and knowledge production. This book explores the role of diagrams in cognitive processes such as experimenting, problem solving, making a choice or orienting oneself in mental or geographical space, demonstrating the extent to which the diagram serves as the semiotic basis of human cognition.
