Summary: How to be a genius in six easy steps
Comment: Looking at titles that cover 'how to' be creative this book stands out as a sane title amongst the glib 'problem solver' titles that are based on the most 'creative geniuses' of all time. The myth of genius, within this publication, tends to be dispelled.
Genius - that value of creative thought - tends to be more mundane than we expect and perhaps hoped for. Giving up cigarettes isn't easy and there's little reasono that I can see why generating ideas that are creative should be any easier.

This book moves beyond the 'einstein' thinking to show how solid understanding formed the basis of ideas. How a random word (potatoe) didn't lead to the formulation of the theory of relativity.
A book that anyone who wants to consider the importance of balanced thinking (research, review, etc) has in the place of great ideas.

Summary: Debunking the Myth of Genius
Comment: This book expertly and methodically shows that the creative thought process is not distinct from ordinary thinking.
