Quite good at giving examples of how you create environments that can encourage good ideas. – источник

The connections Johnson makes are brilliant. For instance, The Gutenberg Press (which, in itself, was invented because of improvements in sewing looms), made everyone realize they had bad vision. So the science of lenses was created. So microscopes were eventually created. So germs were eventually discovered. So modern medical science was discovered. And so on. Johnson is a thinker and a linker and tells a good story. – источник2020-02-05T19:05:34.000Z
@Michaelross1141 @wykle_g @bertkreischer I can’t keep saying it in slightly differently ways I’m afraid. Asked and answered.
But yeah, I can’t recommend this book enough so will just say it one last time. It will reveal a *lot* of fascinating things about the genesis of innovation, even down to biology. Read it ❤️🤟 – источник
