The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain By Betty Edwards

Helps the reader gain access to right-brain functions, which affect artistic and creative abilities, by teaching the skills of drawing through unusual exercises designed to increase visual skills.

This book can teach anyone who is willing to go through the exercises to draw. It won't teach you to be an artist ie to come up with drawings out of your head but it will teach you to copy realistically what you see before your eyes. Within weeks days or possibly hours you can turn from drawing like a five year old to drawing like a pro.

The author says that anyone who can write can draw and proves she is absolutely right

Expect unbelievably amazing results just by practising a few simple exercises.
