Where Good Ideas Come From: The Natural History of Innovation Audiobook

" Definitely a good book for all minds ready to create any kind of change. Well narrated. A good suggestions for students, teachers, businessmens, business owners, workers and creative minds. "

" Good mix of historical example and practical applicable concept. He creates a framework for how to put yourself in a position to nurture innovation. Enjoyable. "

" Johnson is a great writer, explaining complicated concepts clearly, but this book is his best yet. It makes the case for communal discovery better than any previous attempt. "

" Honestly, I didnt quite follow the book. Out of my naivety I found it messy, boring and entangled. "

" More of a history than insight into the process of innovation. Summary: the adjacent possible (build on what is present), liquid networks (big cities, lots of people sharing ideas). Some history about Darwin and others. "

" A lot of fascinating tidbits and interesting conjectures... not sure it added up to something conrete/coherent in the end. The writing was bad in places. "

" I picked up this book after hearing Steven Johnson's interview on CBC's Spark. His arguments are compelling, and the book is chock full of invention origin stories - a very interesting read! "

" A Gladwellian gloss on inspiration and intellectual property. "
