John Lovitt - Innovating Emergent Futures is a window into a world of possibilities that emerge from new capabilities (agencies) applied in novel ways. This is not about the usual incremental creativity that slightly improves existing ways of doing things, but rather about whole new worlds of potential that can only be realized with a fundamentally different approach.
Robert Ransick: This powerful book is a must-read for anyone who wishes to transcend reactive and constrained approaches purporting to be innovation and move toward imagining wholly new possibilities that transcend problem solving and move into generative and creative worldmaking.
Ben Pearson - An eye-opening, mind-expanding book that designers, creatives and innovators of all experiences should read! The possibilities are endless when you see the world through the eyes of the crow.

Store description
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
