Summary: I disagree with the Krikus Review
Review: Maybe I'm a bolt (the Editorial review pans the book), because for me "Care and Feeding of Ideas" was an epiphany. Bill Backer's writing style drew me in as if he was sitting in an easy chair talking with me. I actually looked him up and called him to tell him how much I enjoyed his book. He offers a model with which to cultivate and nurture ideas. For me it resonated loud. The fact that he can point to a real-life success story gives his model credibility as well a way to clarify his approach. I was very disappointed in reading the Editorial review. Who should read this book? I think anyone who has felt frustration in getting an idea off of the drawing board and into execution would enjoy and benefit from reading "Care and Feeding." I read it nearly 10 years ago and still think of it.
