Why do so many world-changing insights come from people with little or no related experience? Charles Darwin was a geologist when he proposed the theory of evolution. And it was an astronomer who finally explained what happened to the dinosaurs. Frans Johansson's The Medici Effect shows how breakthrough ideas most often occur when we bring concepts from one field into a new, unfamiliar territory, and offers examples how we can turn the ideas we discover into path-breaking innovations.

This is not as good as The ClICK MOMENT, which is a totally fantastic book on creative innovation and luck, but it is by the same author, and some of the ideas are similar, it shows the development of Johansson's thinking . I read Medici and think it is important. It was in fact my second reading. I had borrowed it from a library, and read it, but I wanted a study copy I could mark, make notes in and refer back to, so I bought it, after having read it. THAT is a recommendation
