2020: This book is great if you want to spend two hours just thinking about creativity. It's best used if you go into it with your own ideas about creativity, and compare them to Gilbert's. I would recommend steering clear of heading into this book without any preconceived notions, as Gilbert has some pretty crazy ideas that should not be taken literally (IMHO). I enjoyed the time I spent digging around in her brain, but I was happy enough to return to my own, perhaps less creative and more practical, mind.
