The art of creative thinking by Rod Judkins

About the book(general information)

THE ART OF CREATIVE THINKING reveals how we can transform our businesses, our society and ourselves through a deeper understanding of human creativity. Rod Judkins, a lecturer in creativity at the world-famous St Martin's College of Art, will examine the behaviour of successful creative thinkers and explain how all of us can learn from them to improve our lives.

Judkins will draw on an extraordinary range of reference points, from the Dada Manifesto to Andy Warhol's studio, via Steve Jobs, Nobel Prize-winning economists and many others, and distil a lifetime's expertise into 90 succinct chapters. Along the way he shares the story of the most successful class in educational history (in which every single student won a Nobel prize); shows why graphic nudity during public speaking can be both a curse and surprisingly persuasive; and reveals why, in the twenty-first century, it's technically illegal to be as good as Michelangelo

My review

Now this book is known as a self-help book/self-improvement book and I need to mention that it is not a book you can read in a week. Because every section makes you examine them, make conclusions and take action (if it will be helpful in your life). To make my point clear I will add one comment from another reader of this book (with which I completely agree with): "So it says here that I started this book last year, and that is completely fine. This book is not to be devoured. I read this book in chunks.

Whenever I felt like I needed a boost of motivation and to clear my mind, I would read a bit of this book.

This book is honestly amazing for one reason: it combines amazing stories and success stories to make a point. We've all heard about creativity, about thinking outside the box (and they are reinforced here), but the stories that you may have (or may not have) heard of make this book more special. You get to learn applications of creativity and the way the author writes them makes them stick with you.

The author is obviously an expert in the field of creativity and I liked the format the author put an effort into completing. Basically, one entry talks about a particular topic in creativity, and when it is finished the entry is followed by a quote that is relevant to the entry. After that, the author directs you to other entries in this book and somehow connects them together. I did not bother reading it in that format because I thought it might get too confusing for me, so I just read it from start to end."
