Words and images can harmonize to clarify meaning in a variety of texts.

• Human processing of images and text
• The roles of written language in project development in the arts
• Uses of images and visual thinking by writers
• How the ways in which words and images convey meaning can be both different and complementary^LProfessionals, teachers, and students will be understand more effective uses of text and visual displays, and today's writer or designer will learn to clarify complex ideas by controlling the intersections of words and images.
