132 pages : 23 cm, \"We exist in a visual culture. The importance of reading and interpreting signs has become a rapidly increasing concern in recent years. This book offers an intricate theoretical perspective regarding the study of visual communication and expands the academic arena for debate concerning the visual.\" \"Veering away from normative approaches, the author advances with original strides into new ways of understanding the visual experience. Departing from aesthetic and graphic-based directions, the book employs information and language theory to support an enquiry into the connection between perception and linguistics. In dealing with ideas, rather than solutions, the book resonates with a philosophical tenor.

This book is targeted at a wide interdisciplinary readership that includes media, cultural and communication studies and particularly those with interests in visual theory.\"--Jacket, Includes bibliographical references and index, The perceptual connection -- The semiotic connection -- 'In-forming' and meaning -- The tacit dimension -- The aesthetic dimension -- Frames and framing -- Language or system
