Product Description
The future belongs to a different kind of person with a different kind of mind: artists, inventors, storytellers-creative and holistic "right-brain" thinkers whose abilities mark the fault line between who gets ahead and who doesn't. Drawing on research from around the world, Pink outlines the six fundamentally human abilities that are absolute essentials for professional success and personal fulfillment-and reveals how to master them. A Whole New Mind takes readers to a daring new place, and a provocative and necessary new way of thinking about a future that's already here.

 ILUMINATING AND, SADLY, VERY TRUE August 31, 2010
AN SELF PROCLAIMED RIGHT BRAIN THINKER
He is right. It looks like that this will be the reality in the future. The open question is only what will happen to the majority of the word population who is left brain dominated. Can the future word be populated only by artists and people able to syntetize? Where from will they take the data to be sytetized? What will happen, in the future, to the left brain directed people? Will they all have to be born in Asia and continue for centuries, to receive low wages?

 Left me with a whole new mind! August 8, 2010

While the notion of left-brain vs. right-brain wasn't new, Daniel Pink explores in depth, the implications of the differences. I particularly liked this book because it put a new perspective on many things that I used to find irrational or random. Rather, I see these as reality and logical progressions now. This in turn, has provided me with a broad framework within which to connect dots that I would have otherwise dismissed as arbitrary because they were not on the same plane.
It's kind of left me with a whole new mind. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that has to constantly deal with different individuals and personalities - whether at work, home or in social contexts.
The Right-Brain Renaissance August 3, 2010
Brenner Heintz
As jobs that were once taken for granted are quickly disappearing (because of Abundance, Asia, and Automation), who will come out on top in the 21st century? Dan makes a compelling argument that creators and empathizers will rule the world.
Check out [...] for an excellent summary of the main points in this book. At times, the book's examples border on fluff, but I believe that the main concepts in this book cannot be overlooked by anyone who wishes to succeed in our new economy. So, get out there and create something!

I love this book by Daniel Pink -- his vision for a Creative future is spot on... It's an easy, enthusiastic read -- a very positive book. He foresees that in the coming years the workforce will be dominated by meaning-makers, empathizers, and creatives. Throughout the book, Pink shares a lot of additional references, which is useful. A good book for us creatives who need a boost of hope! For a more practical aspect of creativity, I also recommend The Creative Advantage Book: Unleash Your Creativity And Change The World!.
