I read this in under 24 hours, well written and informative. And I would like to see more of this research put into practice. Highly recommend.

I have an urge to mock the breathless descriptions of corporate practices, but to be honest, I really enjoyed this book. It really got me thinking about teaching practices (and practices in my department).

Unfortunately, his reputation of inventing quotes and facts puts into question the plausibility of his suspiciously neat explanations of incredibly complex processes.

I always expect more from Lehrer's books than what is delivered, but it's a thought-provoking read. Not nearly enough end citations for those of us nerdy enough to want to root around in the research.

I hesitated to give this book three stars because of the integrity issues that have surfaced. Therefore, I can't vouch for the accuracy of the research in this book. The flow of Imagine is similar to the multitude of easy-to-read psychology books that are currently available, so I'd recommend pursuing one of those instead.

I had to read this book slowly, which tried my patience but rewarded my mind. There is so much amazing information in this book, insights that parents and teachers and people in general should cling to. So many highlights and bookmarks I plan to revisit, and it is really well written so you don't feel like information is being crammed into your brain, even though it is.

Insightful book about imagination and creativity, both where it comes from and how to cultivate more of it. Note: the author was accused/admitted to plagiarism and faking several quotes from Bob Dylan and others featured in the book. However much of the source material is legit and the themes in the book are worth understanding.

Liked it, but not enough to finish before it was due back at the library.
