In “where good ideas come from” Johnson explains the premises of ideas. It is not an instructional book for creating great ideas, like a cookbook tells you how to make a nice apple-pie. He take a great deal of inspiration from nature as a basis for creating environments where ideas can flourish. No wonder that one in particular, Darwin’s “Origin of species”, servers as a guiding line throughout the book.
Many historical inventions are discussed for building his case.

Yes is a rough collection of persuasion techniques. This one give a more detailed and more fundamental explanation of what causes the Click and Wrill. I found it not easy readable especially if you compare it with the book of Gladwell and Pink.
Nevertheless it contains enough useful hits and knowledge that is worth reading

• Laat zich lezen als een sneltrein
• Contact met de Giph in het boek.
• Een vleugje brutaal
• Scherpe opmerkingen

There are many praises for this book and I could not agree any more.

In “Change by Design” Tim Brown, CEO of IDEO, shows us what the concept of design thinking is. In the first section he explains the principles which gives you a good impression of field of design thinking. However the rest of the book is full with examples in which he was able to apply design thinking. He tops it of in the last section with a lecture of global issues that need to be addressed.

I would have liked to get more information on a how-to apply design thinking, best practices, do’s and don’ts.. instead of the huge quantity of examples.

Bottom line: A book worth reading, but also a book that has space for improvement
