How to Think - Creative Thinking Puzzles: Brain-training puzzles to improve innovative thought

Description

Don't get stuck in a rut - free up your creativity with this puzzle book. These puzzles will teach you how to think creatively by calming the critical voice in your head that can sometimes paralyze fresh thought. Scientists tell us that our brains are often more active when we are working with others. Creative thinking will help you develop strategies for thinking cooperatively - not only when you're in a team, bouncing ideas around, but also when you're alone, by seeking inspiration and a fresh outlook from the world around you, as well as from personal mentors and even written sources. A key part of the book provides essential guidance on lifestyle and fostering a positive outlook to complement exercises that help you get those creative juices flowing. This title includes an extended introduction with advice on how to think in new creative ways, as well as a number of How to Think tips to improve those skills as you work through the book.
