Customer Reviews
Amazingly inspirational.....
I feel compelled to put in my 'tuppence' worth about this book but in truth have very little to add to the other reviews. This book is a fantastic resource. It sets out "linear", "intuitive" and other techniques to assist in the generation of fresh ideas for business.
It actually makes the process enjoyable and I have found myself using the techniques in this book to solve business challenges, in unrelated fields, just to keep my mind fresh.
The techniques taught can also help in solving day-to-day dilemmas by helping come up with creative solutions.
A truly remarkable, and amazingly inspirational, book.
Every Creative Thinker Should Read This Classic
Thinkertoys expands your imaginative capacities with easy-to-use techniques you can employ
again-and-again in all your creative endeavors. A newer book well worth reading is Why Didn't I
Think of That? - Think the Unthinkable and Achieve Creative Greatness. These two books together
cover the full spectrum of useful creative thinking skills every serious thinker must possess. The
skills are learned, not inborn. The very best approach to fully developing the skills in yourself is to read about them and practice them with books such as Thinkertoys and Why Didn?t I Think of
That?
It's everything advertised to be.
This book is everything it's advertised to be. It's a creative thinking workshop in a book. I can't imagine how the author could have written a better or more useful book on creativity in business. Wonderful job, Michael!
