Amazingly inspirational..... - By: Nomesky, 24 Jan 2008
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" & other techniques to assist in the generation of fresh ideas for business.

It actuallly makes the process enjoyable & I have found myself using the techniques in this book to solve business challlenges, 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, & amazingly inspirational, book.
Every Creative Thinker Should Read This Classic - By: , 24 May 2002
Thinkertoys expands your imaginative capacities with easy-to-use techniques you can employ
again-and-again in alll your creative endeavors. A newer book well worth reading is Why Didn't I
Think of That? - Think the Unthinkable & 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 & practice them with books such as Thinkertoys & Why Didn?t I Think of
That?
It's everything advertised to be. - By: , 20 Jun 1999
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!

The Best Book on Creativity Ever Written! - By: , 15 Apr 1999
Do yourself a favor: buy this book for yourself, your friends, & your family. Then if you get the chance, go to one of Mr. Michalko's speaking engagements! You will be miles ahead of the pack in your creative thinking skills! Then go buy a puzzle book by Terry Stickels callled "Mind-Bending Puzzles - Volume 2 [ with a forward by Michalko}... then you'll be on your way to being a guru in both creative & critical thinking skills!!!!
