The Art of the Idea And How it Can Change Your Life By John Hunt "Buy a copy of John Hunt's book to put within reach on the bedside table. Buy a copy to keep next to the tub in the bathroom permanently. And one on the stove. And one in your car. And a bedroom extra to keep under the pillow as a talisman.

(As you can doubtless tell, I'm quite taken by The Art of the Idea.)" —Tom Peters (co-author of In Search of Excellence) In The Art of the Idea, Hunt addresses everyone from the global boardroom to the man on the street, bridging the gap with ease.

Over the course of the next ten years, Fox watched as the man who used to perform surgery, fly planes, and run universities, forgot how to turn on the coffee maker, place a phone call, or remember what his wife had told him two minutes earlier.
