Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
In a competitive society, where cost control is a primary factor in the corporate environment, workers need more and more creative strategies to survive. Ayan, the founder and president of his own company and a frequent motivational speaker, points out that creativity is a learned, not an inborn, trait and that the majority of us have the potential to be creative, though we lose it as we enter elementary school. Further thwarting our creativity in adulthood is stress. Ayan embraces here both traditional techniques and new ways to fuel creativity, for example, using new technology (he adds his web site with links to related topics). This "how-to" book with miniworkshops and exercises to spark the imagination includes reading lists after each chapter. Ayan gives credit to some of his favorite works, including Mihaly Csikszentimihalyi's Creativity (LJ 6/15/96) and John Kao's Jamming (LJ 7/96). A valuable source; recommended for public libraries.?Bellinda Wise, Nassau Community Coll. Lib., Garden City, N.Y.

I discovered this book while researching the topic of parents helping nurture creativity in their children. Since my first premise is that we are all creative and that parents need to conncet with their own creativity, the book gave direct help on understanding how to spark adult creativity. Also --enormously helpful was its simple, logical organization--that guided me as I organized my own thoughts for my speech. Super bibliography. Good reference book to have around--not just for the topic, but also for its direct and utilitarian style.

If you're looking for a book covering all aspects of Creativity then I think Aha! is fantastic. The book is well structured to allow for unstructured reading.
I have read many books on the subject of Creativity and Innovation, however this book gives me the best 'warm and fuzzy' feeling (ie. intuitive synergy).
As soon as I started reading the book I could not put it down.
I strongly recommend it.

An average book.
I was disappointed in the book. It contains the usual bromides, but not much new stuff. It's becoming like if you read one book on creative thinking you've read them all.

I was sceptical of the other reviews at first....
This book is worth the money if you are looking for something to kick-start your creativity. I have always been fairly creative at home (drawing, painting, dressmaking etc) but... Lesen Sie weiter...

Good book
A good inspirational book for those who need inspiration. Well-written and informative but lacks the specific tools and techniques one needs to become more creative.

This is a practical one
There are a lot of (good) books about creativity. But if you want to PRACTICE creativity, this is the book. Buy it, read it, and assimilate. You will be rewarded.
