What's the Story?: An Illustrated Collection of Lateral Thinking Puzzles A set of Card(s)

Welcome to the world of lateral thinking puzzles: mind exercises that encourage cleverness and innovation in problem solving. Coined by Dr. Edward de Bono in 1970, lateral thinking is a non-traditional way of approaching a problem, sometimes called "thinking outside the box." Often used to train business executives and others in the art of creative thinking, these puzzles are sometimes proposed to job applicants at software and high-tech firms. What's the Story? features more than 20 puzzles-some classic, some new-in two formats. Available as a book and as a boxed deck of cards, both editions have been compiled and are illustrated by Matthew Johnstone, whose work is as thought-provoking as the puzzles themselves. Do the illustrations hold clues to the solutions? Perhaps, but you probably won't recognize the clues until you've found the solution. Perfect for long car trips or dull dinner parties, these fascinating puzzles will generate hours of mind-bending fun.Read More
