This is a great book. It's based on the principle that we are all creative, but the author just doesn't leave you with this bold claim - he has many practical ways of exploring this. Also, Re-think is a useful term to describe the everyday creativity we all possess. I find myself using the expression in my life and work, along the lines, 'Hmmm.... I need to re-think this.'
Personally I found the sections on creating a more successful future through storytelling, how to trust your intuition, and the part about wakening up curiosity (about people, places, ideas) very refreshing.
Re-think suggests that you're either a creator (preferring to think 'why not?' 'what if?') or a critic ('yes, but' to everything new). This simple idea of being aware when i'm yes-butting a new perspective was worth the price of the book.
Finally, I had fun reading it! It's clear and accessible. If I have one criticism (though not of course a yes-but) it's that there is so much info. So i went back to the introduction and read the section on navigating the book and was reminded that Re-think works best when you read a chapter and then try it out.
I thoroughly recommend this to anyone with a brain!

I don't know what came over me when I bought this. If you want to read books about creativity for business, go for Seth Godin. Or even Tom Peters. Or any one of the million others. They all have blogs - which are all free.
If you need something to take on the train, buy a Kindle.
This book feels like being forced to listen to a tape of my 18-year-old self after being force-fed Prozac and cocaine.
