Review: The Net and the Butterfly: The Art and Practice of Breakthrough Thinking

The Net and the Butterfly: The Art and Practice of Breakthrough Thinking The Net and the Butterfly: The Art and Practice of Breakthrough Thinking by Olivia Fox Cabane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a varied collection of active thinking techniques some of which could even be labeled new age: meditation, etc. Be prepared for "loving kindness" and "mindfulness". Well, at the peak levels, it is all a head game and this motivating compendium of approaches reminds us of the activating effects of altruism, and the voice of genius that can be heard in zen-like tranquility. There are also useful approaches to corral brainstorming sessions in meetings, etc.
