Recenzje

A great case for how to think, not what to think in these fast moving and complex times. Watson s message is clear - our innate imagination and human ability to think deeply about life and issues are the best assets we have to deliver us safely to the future. Full of wonderfully inspired quotations, sage predictions and abundance of source material this is a "how to" that is a definitely a "must have." Ed Gillespie, Guardian journalist
