This is a useful book to understand the subtleties of navigation through space-time. Sounds fancy huh? Not really. Jean does a good job explaining the differences between taxonomies and schema in a way that is accessible to a person practiced in cognitive psychology. This work has implications for the usability of navigational structures of informational structures in Western culture and points to how a person might code different aspects of a context to access indirect perceptual components of Ux.
Additionally, this book helped me to understand a key difference between musical and visual structures. The difference is very subtle, but very powerful.
