ab: The author considers the philosophy of mathematical practice to identify a
    severe limitation in the attempt to assimilate visual reasoning to
    verbal reasoning, and by extension to criticize the approach to
    reasoning that treats all reasoning as if it were verbal reasoning. For
    his discussion, the author divides his article in the five sections viz
    1) Introduction, 2) Mathematics, 3) Diagrams, 4) Icons, 5) Conclusion.
    Each section is well explained and well informative. The article is
    very useful to those who are going to study philosophy of mathematics.
