Imagination First: Unlocking the Power of Possibility
Interesting book. More theoretical than practical. If you are looking for exercises on developing your own imagination, this book won't tell you what to do. I don't know if this book is really great or just ho-hum because I have a very vivid imagination. If you feel you are imaginationally challenged, please tell me what you thought of this book. I'm curious. For more of my thoughts:
