Review #1: most simplest and yet powerful creativity toolkit





Review #1

most simplest and yet powerful creativity toolkit

This is actually an adult adaptation of his earlier creativity book for kids, entitled Creativity for Kids of All Ages (which also happens to be an excellent creativity guide). To me, this is the most simplest and yet powerful creativity book. Better still, a powerful creativity toolkit. He uses over 20 animal metaphors to explain and illustrate how we can learn from nature to be creative. Nature has always been man's greatest teacher. The author' extensive illustrations from nature show his power of acute observation, which to me is also an important yet learnable tool in creative thinking. For example, he says "Observe Like a Lion" as a starter. A lion will always observe closely its target prey from a distance before going for the kill. Metaphorically, one should always study a problem closely from various angles or perspectives and then plan out a strategy before attempting to solve it. With over 20 metaphors - thinking tools to be precise - and tightly written in a crisp and succinct style, this small book is a recommended must-read for everybody - adults and kids alike - who wants to improve - and enhance - their everyday thinking processes.
