Capture, closure, focus and attention

Three books that are related and overlap thematically, and of great interest to our blog.

"Capture is how our attention focuses on how one stimuli rather than the thousands of others that are bombarding us."

 



"'Closure' proposes that we regard the world as open and it is we who close it through our stories."



"Human thought is laid out in a continuous spectrum. Every human mind is a spectrum; evert human mind possesses a broad continuous range of different ways in which to think. The way in which a person happens to be thinking at any given moment depends on a characteristic I'll call "mental focus.""
