If Your In Advertising, Stay Away
Most books on advertising and creativity are pretty bad, and this one is no exception.I wish for once we could have a creative who talks about process more than accomplishment. Instead, Stan Richards (and authors like him) spend many pages complimenting their own genius. Unfortunately they give us no insight into what supposedly makes them a genius.
Poorly conceived, and poorly written.

Zzzzzzzzzz
Whoah! It's ciesta time!Never has advertising been so boring!
A poorly written book, by a poor creative. Instead of building a company I think Stan may have just created the world's most profitable police state!

Try Stan Richards other book
Just search Amazon for Stan Richards other book "The Land of Many Breasts". Trust me, it's much more fascinating than this one. And a more accurate depiction of his agency. I think you'll enjoy it as much as I did. Similar Products
