Two books not on the list that you might consider: Jack’s Notebook, a business novel of creative problem solving, by Gregg Fraley, and Think Better, by Tim Hurson. Jack’s Notebook is to creative problem solving what The Goal is to theTheory of Constraints. Hurson’s recently published book Think Better is a great guide to how we think and how we can think more productively towards innovative ends. Thanks for the great book list!
