Where Good Ideas Come from: The Natural History of Innovation by Steven Johnson

4.0

Very unusually for the genre, I wish this book was twice as long. The big ideas are still strong today, and they were really forward-thinking when written in 2010. But they blur together in confusing ways, and the supporting arguments and implications aren't very developed. If you don't know much at all about the science of innovation, this is a good starting point, but if you've read some already there probably won't be much that's new here.
