This books makes you do the work!!!..., July 24, 2001
This review is from: Roger Von Oech's Ancient Whacks of Heraclitus: A Creativity Tool Based on the Epigrams of Heraclitus (Cards)
Alot of people will not understand this book because their minds are not used to working on problems in the manner of imagining "what might be", and "what if" scenarios that that compel you to think in different dimensions. It feels very strange to think in different dimensions. These exercises take alot of mental persistance and practice to get over the initial feelings of strangeness that accompany the skills and powers that these exercises convey!!!

A Wonderful Thought-Provoking Creativity Tool!, January 6, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Roger Von Oech's Ancient Whacks of Heraclitus: A Creativity Tool Based on the Epigrams of Heraclitus (Cards)
Looking for creative inspiration? Try consulting the world's first creativity teacher: Heraclitus of Ephesus (flourished circa 500 BC). This card deck consists of 30 of Heraclitus' best enigmatic epigrams, illustrated by George Willett, and with commentary by Roger von Oech. Lots of good ideas! This deck is a wonderful complement to Roger's other work: "A Whack on theSide of the Head" and the "Creative Whack Pack."

Same Stuff Over and Over Again, September 17, 2003
This review is from: Roger Von Oech's Ancient Whacks of Heraclitus: A Creativity Tool Based on the Epigrams of Heraclitus (Cards)
Writer is a very talented person. If you read one of his books you will get lots of valuable insights. But he found a way to make money. He is using the same ideas and content for writing different books. So if you do read any book of this person... Do not buy this book... Because you will feel like "i saw this before"...

The Ancient Whacks of Heraclitus have jolted my thinking. It's a great creativity tool and I'm recommending it to all of friends. It's a splendid follow-on product to Roger's Creative Whack Pack.
