About the book

Roger von Oech fills his guide to creative thinking with puzzles, cartoons, anecdotes, exercises, metaphors and quotations meant to break through mental blocks. Seminars around the world have used it, it has appeared in eleven languages, and a later illustrated edition updated the material.

Nick Janetakis, a self-taught web developer and teacher, said it can change how a person thinks and enjoyed how von Oech keeps posing puzzles that train independent, creative thinking.

Nothing has ever pushed me into a different career path but A Whack on the Side of the Head by Roger von Oech can really alter how you think. It's a very fun book to read because Roger is constantly throwing puzzles at you and systematically training you on how to be more of an independent and creative thinker.
