Would recommend for anyone to read this book it was shockingly philosophical and had some exceptional perspectives and thoughts on life that were much more than business practices but more ways of life. I haven't flown through a required book for a class in a long time but I definitely did with this book.

There might have been some good exercises and points in this book but they didn't translate well in this format. It was a struggle to get through.

This was required reading for school, but I found it pretty interesting! It was short and sweet.

I got this book from second hand shop. I had it home for some time and decide to skip it through so I could recycle it back. This book have changed my opinion from its first page and I definitely keeping it.
The book has a lot of analogies with zen teachings, but also many great examples of successful people. However, you will need to have a growing mindset to appreciate the content and advices of this book.
The biggest minus of this book is that some examples are somehow just grabbed upon without explaining their relevance.

One of my favorite books on creativity in business and on creativity in general. Great stories, quotes, exercises and anecdotes.

This was way too spiritual for me - reads more like a guide to meditation and eastern religious practices than a practical guide.

It's worth reading, and there will be no need to read more on this kind.

This is so much more than a business book! I have read it many times since 1989. The title could be "Creativity in All Areas of Your Life". This is a book I will always treasure
