    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    From the author of Emergence and The Ghost Map, Steven Johnson's Where Good Ideas Come From: The Seven Patterns of Innovation identifies key principles that are the driving force of creativity.

    Learn how:

    A slow hunch can be much more valuable than a Eureka moment
    The connected 'hive mind' is smarter than the lone thinker
    Where you think matters just as much as what you're thinking
    The best ideas come from building on the ideas and inventions of others

    From the Renaissance to satellites, medical breakthroughs to social media, Charles Darwin to Marconi, Steven Johnson shows how, by recognising where and how patterns of creativity occur, we can all discover the secrets of inspiration.

    'Johnson finds new and original things to say about the nature of innovation, and the different forms it can take' - Economist, Books of the Year

    'An enthralling work full of counter-intuitive insights' - Daily Mail
