   What distinguishes good from bad  thinking? ... How to  improve
   thinking? His thinking? Thinking at  all? ...For more than  two
   thousand years, many  of the best  minds in philosophy,  logic,
   psychology,  pedagogy,  trying   to  find   answers  to   these
   questions. The history  of these efforts,  brilliant ideas  and
   the enormous labor expended on research and creative discussion
   is a vivid, dramatic picture.

                                                    Max Wertheimer

  The book  is intended  for anyone  who wants  to streamline  and
  improve your mind. It is  addressed to the knowledge workers  of
  all  professions  and  specialties:  designers  and   educators,
  technologists  and  doctors,  agronomists  and   mathematicians,
  biologists and economists, psychologists and oilmen,  physicists
  and programmers, and so on. D.

  He who  briefly flipped  through  it, one  might get  the  false
  impression that it is devoted  to computers and programming.  In
  fact it is not. It is  not a thinking machine, but about  people
  thinking  about  the  mysteries   and  peculiarities  of   human
  cognition and intelligence. About mysterious traps and  pitfalls
  that lie  in wait  for us  in the  difficult navigation  on  the
  boundless seas everyday mental work.  For information on how  to
  find salvation lighthouse and come  to the goal by the  shortest
  route.

  The book  proposes  a  new universal  means  to  facilitate  and
  improve the work of the mind, which can be used in many,  almost
  all areas of mental activity. In itself, this tool does not have
  any relation  to computers.  Therefore, it  can be  successfully
  applied and those who  do not like  computers, treats them  with
  suspicion or apprehension.  You will  need a  pencil, paper  and
  nothing  more.  In  short,  this   tool  is  quite  useful   for
  improvement of the most common (beskompyuternoy) mental work.

  However, fans of  computer would  benefit even  more, since  the
  said means can serve as the basis for a powerful new information
  technology  as  part  of  the  next  generation  of  information
  technology - cognitive information technologies.

  Perhaps, the book falls into the hands of the reader, who  would
  like to improve his mind, but that scare or annoy words such  as
  "algorithm", "software",  "formalization".  This  grief  is  not
  difficult to help. Now we compose comic dictionary that although
  violates  all   canons   of   scientific  rigor,   but   it   is
  understandable for beginners.

                        Frivolous dictionary

  Algorithm - a precise description of solving the problem, which
  leads to victory Algorithm - accurately describe the sequence of
  human actions Algorithm - an accurate and complete description
  of the work (activity) that allows other people to repeat this
  activity photographically accurate, without any deviation, and
  get the desired result Visual algorithm - an algorithm, the
  image is not as text, but as a visual image Visualization
  Algorithms - conversion algorithm, which is recorded as a bad
  and incomprehensible text into a good and clear picture The
  cognitive - informative. It is an awkward word to remember, as
  it will come across at every turn The program - a sequence of
  actions that people are too lazy to carry out himself, and
  therefore requests the computer or robot Formal - detailed A
  formal description - an accurate, unambiguous and complete
  description, devoid of gaps and ambiguities Formalizing -
  turning the ordinary (poor) to describe the formal (nice)
  Avtoformalizatsiya - is when a person performs a formalization
  itself, without resorting to the help of friends, relatives and
  bystanders The formalization of activities - an exact
  description of the rules by which the activity is performed.
  During the formalization of activities should be split into
  separate steps, indicate the sequence of their execution, as
  well as the conditions under which (or not done) every action.
  As a result of the formalization description of the activity is
  transformed into an algorithm Algorithmization - the same thing
  that the formalization of activities Algorithmization - making
  order in the realm of anarchy, eliminating confusion and
  sloppiness, prompting technological discipline Algorithmization
  - the process of creating an algorithm Ergonomics - the science
  of how to turn a complex, difficult and nasty work in simple,
  easy and pleasant Cognitive ergonomics - the science of how to
  facilitate and improve the mental work Ergonomizatsiya science -
  facilitating and improving research activities Ergonomizatsiya
  education - facilitating and improving training activities
