The Images of Order is a novel application of a fertile idea originally conceived by Kenneth Boulding in The Image and expanded by J. Samuel Bois in The Art of Awareness. From a handful of images variously called standardized analogies or mental models, a student is given maximum ability to generalize, making sense of an almost endless variety of theoretical constructs and analogies from the hard sciences to the fine arts.
