    <![CDATA[<em>illustrated with 12-page color photo insert and line art throughout</em><br/><br/>A revised and expanded edition of the classic drawing-instruction book that has sold more than 2,500,000 copies.<br/><br/>When <em>Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain</em> was first published in 1979, it hit the New York Times bestseller list within two weeks and stayed there for more than a year. In 1989, when Dr. Betty Edwards revised the book, it went straight to the Times list again. Now Dr. Edwards celebrates the twentieth anniversary of her classic book with a second revised edition.<br/><br/>Over the last decade, Dr. Edwards has refined her material through teaching hundreds of workshops and seminars. Truly <em>The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain</em>, this edition includes:<br/><br/>* the very latest developments in brain research;<br/>* new material on using drawing techniques in the corporate world and in education;<br/>* instruction on self-expression through drawing;<br/>* an updated section on using color; and<br/>* detailed information on using the five basic skills of drawing for problem solving.<br/><br/>Translated into thirteen languages, <em>Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain</em> is the world's most widely used drawing-instruction  guide. People from just about every walk of life--artists, students, corporate executives, architects, real estate agents, designers, engineers--have applied its revolutionary approach to problem solving. The <em>Los Angeles Times</em> said it best: Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is &quot;not only a book about drawing, it is a book about living. This brilliant approach to the teaching of drawing . . . should not be dismissed as a mere text. It emancipates.&quot;]]>
