    For sure. Philosophically, he argues compellingly that the act of visualization can be an act of insight making if done well. He also offers much practical guidance that can be easily adopted.

    I have three of his books: one addresses visualization of nouns, another deals with numbers and the third deals with verbs. I've shared these books or excerpts from them with my staff and colleagues over the years and they have been received well.

    Looking at this thread inspired me to see if I can find something new for my walls. So I picked this up

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/201459556096Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    Combined it with few other items as ebay/pp had $15 off $75 going today. That knocked few more $ off.

    I really like that Apollo one in the OP, but just wish it was bigger format.

    I bought this last year from a gallery near to me which was closing and had asked regular artists to each submit a one-off piece. This one's hand-drawn in charcoal and I love it.

    Just picked up a few sets of Zeiss slides I grabbed off of eBay that were sold as "Space slides".

    One whole set is of Apollo11...

    Yes I did, got nice email from Paul with a tracking number. However I live in UK so may have been simpler for him . Very quick delivery. Not allowed to open tube as it's my birthday present. That's what I told my wife when she said " What have you bought now " At least it wasn't a watch .................. when do I tell her about the Speedy Tuesday LE ??

    Spirograph! I had one of those when I was a kid. Does that mean I could have been a NASA engineer? My dad did work at their Houston facility as part of the team from AT&T.
