Why read it?
1 author picked Ingenius as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is a practitioner’s guide to applied creativity in business, from yet another Stanford University professor. What is it about Stanford?

For anyone looking to create something from scratch, this book is for you.
From Matthew's list on creative thinking.
