Edward de Bono is acknowledged by many as a leading authority in the field of creative thinking and the direct teaching of thinking as a skill. He has written over 70 books with translations into 40 languages. He is the originator of lateral thinking which treats creativity as the behaviour of information in a self-organising information system - such as the neural networks in the brain.
