Includes some techniques i've not seen anywhere else


There's a lot of techniques listed here. It really is a workshop manual of thinking. There's a broad spread of types of techniques which should suit just about every situation. There's also some I've not seen before. The section on brainstorming has several variants listed that are worth paying for the book just for these (imho). It also explains the background theory to brainstorming which is worth knowing too.
