Edition DescriptionSpecial edition
SynopsisThis is the 25th anniversary edition of the creativity classic by Dr. Roger von Oech. Over the years, A WHACK ON THE SIDE OF THE HEAD has been praised by business people, educators, scientists, homemakers, artists, youth leaders, and many more. The book has been stimulating creativity in millions of readers, translated into eleven languages, and used in seminars around the world. Now Roger von Oech's fully illustrated and updated volume is filled with even more provocative puzzles, anecdotes, exercises, metaphors, cartoons, questions, quotations, stories, and tips designed to systematically break through your mental blocks and unlock your mind for creative thinking. This new edition will attract an entire new generation of readers with updated and mind-stretching material.
Filled with a ton of great ideas and interesting tidbits of information on "the different" and creative way of looking at things and problem solving. Lots of exercises to support the message.
While a bit dated, the message is relevant to today... as it was when the book was published... and updated.
All about creativity, both in small and global ways.
Over the years I have had a few of these books and given them away to friends and colleagues. Great books, I bought this one for my granddaughter to keep her mind creatively active.
