The power of collaboration, from Lennon and McCartney to Wozniak and Jobs: ';An inspiring book that also happens to be a great read'(Daniel H.Pink, author of Drive). Throughout history, partners have buoyed each other to better workthough often one member is little known to the general public. (See Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, or Vincent and Theo van Gogh.) Powers of Two draws on neuroscience, social psychology, and cultural history to present the social foundations of creativity, with the pair as its primary embodiment. Revealing the six essential stages through which creative intimacy unfolds, this book shows how pairs begin to talk, think, and even look like each other; how the most successful ones thrive on conflict; and why some cease to work together while others carry on. At once intuitive and deeply surprising, Powers of Two will reshape the way you view individuals, relationships, and society itself. ';A rare glimpse into the private realms of duos… A natural storyteller.' TheNew York Times ';A book about magic, about the Beatles, about the chemistry between people, about neuroscience, and about the buddy system; it examines love and hate, harmony and dissonance, and everything in between… Wise, funny, surprising, and completely engrossing.' Susan Orlean ';We sometimes think of creativity as coming from brilliant loners. In fact, it more often happens when bright people pair up and complement each other. Shenk's fascinating book shows how to spark the power of this phenomenon.' Walter Isaacson ';Surprising, compelling… Shenk banishes the idea of solitary genius by demonstrating that our richest art and science come from collaboration: we need one another not only for love, but also for thinking and imagining and growing and being.' Andrew Solomon
