All animals communicate with each other in one form or another, but humans are unique in that we have been able to go much further, creating languages and symbols to share and explain ideas, feelings and abstract concepts. Communication has allowed us to make breakthroughs in science and convey emotions through art and music, and in order to communicate faster and farther, we have created technologies ranging from writing to the Internet.
Almost everything we do during the day is a form of communication – not only when we speak, listen, read or write, but also when we see road signs or read each other’s body language. This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of communication in all its many forms, from ancient times to AI.
An enthralling read supported by stand-out #illustration Communication #howweconnectandexchangeinformation by @eduardaltarriba & @meli shares the earliest alphabets and hieroglyphics fast forward to the internet and AI. But communication isn’t just about talking, listening, reading and writing. It goes beyond traditional communicative techniques to Braille, sing language, flags and secret codes. An engaging #nonfictionbook for a younger audience.
* @bookgiftblogger *This is such a fascinating book to dip into. It is beautifully illustrated and explores such a wide range of ways that we communicate. These include sign language, Braille, Egyptian hieroglyphics, the Latin alphabet, Arabic alphabet, flags, symbols, heraldry and emblems, morse code and so much more! We have really enjoyed dipping into this book!
