The contributors' multiple perspectives, models, practical examples and stories provide a sense of innovation that no single writer could ever capture. "The Future of Innovation" is supported by a new website.

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book asks a simple question of hundreds of innovation specialists around the World: What is the Future of Innovation? They have all been limited to a page and a half response, so the book is a fascinating compendium of thoughts from people that really think...about innovation. You probably won't want to read it cover to cover but the editors have made dipping in easy by weaving the articles with their own comments. There is also a good reference system if there is something particular you are searching for. There is an accompanying website that has on it even more articles that didn't make it into the book. Great job, good read.
