Review:
Why do all these books about creative thinking keep repeating all the stuff that has been written before. It's always the same old same old. If you have nothing new to contribute, why publish one more book. Save the tree.

Summary: Surprising Find
Review: I was in the final throes of completing a training course and went to the library to gather some minor research support. In looking through one section I stumbled onto this book. What a lucky find. While the organization/sequencing of the materials was not as "tight" as I might like, there were enough concepts here that got me thinking, which is just what I needed. I look for things that inspire. There was even an example in the book that I'm using to illustrate a good solution that missed its potential (not the author's intent). Roger even reminded me of the importance of other research I've done before and helped me find a way to tie that research into the materials I was collecting.

Even more importantly, it introduced a concept that blew out a personal mental block I was having (a performance limiting factor). My family will be grateful for that serendipidous event.
