Synopsis

Do you want to learn a different way of thinking?

Do you want to stretch your mind?

Almost everyone is born with the capacity to be creative, but few realise it and such skills are often neglected or untapped. Lateral thinking is all about thinking 'outside the box', breaking out of familiar thought patterns and coming up with new possibilities. It is one of the keys to improving creativity.

This book of brand new lateral puzzles aims to encourage you to think creatively. Whether at work, as part of an assessment or simply for fun, learning to think creatively can be hugely rewarding and make a real difference to your ability. By trying to find unusual or unexpected associations, patterns and connections, you can learn to keep an open mind and to look at everything in a different way.

With plenty of questions and tips, this book provides an ideal opportunity for anyone to practice thinking laterally and improve their creativity.
