[Q]: Waste of money . 98% of this thin book is about how many buttons a certain uniform had on it and what type of boots a certain unit wore. Almost nothing about the Italian Army of WWII was in it. A more appropriate title would have been "The Uniforms of the Italian Army 1940-45: Africa"
[A]: NEG

[Q]: Good Overview . This was a well-written compilation that provides an overview of the lives and departures of certain notorious film entities over many years. The entries I most appreciated dealt with early icons, now barely remembered if at all, whose names inevitably produce the query: "Whatever became of -- ?" Appreciated even more was the author's willingness to reach conclusions about an individual's life and career. He delivered evaluations and even criticisms as warranted. Well worth reading - Al Hooper, Edmonds, WA -- Al Hooper, Edmonds, W

[Q]: A Masterpiece, sadly forgotten, worth reviving . Recently, I have read a lot of books on Creativity and Innovation. My big surprise is that virtually none of them mention Koestler's The Act of Creation. This is unfortunate because this book is probably the most authoritative examination of creativity. Attention to this classic is worth reviving. Koestler examines three types of creativity - Humor, Science, and Poetry. Humor, according to him, is cruel (a valuable insight). Poetry, and other forms of art, integrate oneself with the World. Science occupies the neutral middle. It is amazing how Koestler manages to link all three kinds of creativity with a common framework. My two biggest take-aways from this book are regarding the process of creation and its form. As Koestler describes beautifully - "..uncovers, selects, re-shuffles, combines, synthesizes already existing facts, ideas, faculties, skills. The more familiar the parts, the more striking the new whole." This is corroborated by all geniuses who have stood 'on the shoulder of giants'. Even inventors like Edison fit this framework. This is close to saying that instead of thinking 'outside the box', link several boxes to each other. The other great insight is that the final breakthrough is rarely verbal, but in images. So people see new insights in a dream-like trance, rather than expressing it in language. Language, probably, impedes creativity. There are several more delightful and relevant insights on creativity in this masterpiece. Nearly a bible on creativity.
