<p>"The book is filled with the voices of people who knew, loved, admired and worked with him... It's de Bono viewed from the side, as remembered by those who were fond of him. It's to Tucker's credit that now such a private man comes into view so much more clearly... It leaves us free to engage with de Bono's legacy, head on."</p><p>_ Ranier Fsadni, Times of Malta Edward de Bono sideways (timesofmalta.com)</p><p>Book Review by Michael Hewitt-Gleeson - School of Thinking</p><p>"Love Laterally is a 2024 book about Edward de Bono by Sarah Tucker. The book truly lives up to its snappy name. There is lots of love. There is lots of lateral thinking. I enjoyed it immensely and also learned a lot about a man that I knew very well for fifty years. Edward de Bono's books about Lateral thinking and thinking outside the box are concepts that are part of our culture and here to stay. Many of us have long since benefitted from Edward's instruction and many others are yet to do so. Even a single sentence from this great thinker can change a brain and change a life... There are many fascinating stories and insights in this easy to read and lovely book..."</p><p>- Michael Hewitt-Gleeson, schoolofthinking.org</p><p>"Riveting read of a man who led his life in the fast lane and created a way for others to do the same."<br />- Dave Trott, advertising guru</p><p>"An amazing and perceptive biography." - Anne Sebba, author of That Woman: The Life of Wallis</p><p>'I loved this book so much. I initially never heard the name, Edward de Bono but after learning that he is behind what it's means to be a creative thinker and think outside the box I was fascinated. After reading this book I learned a lot more about Edward de Bono and understood how he thought the way he did. When I read the book there were events in his life that I couldn't believe were real but I loved all the juicy stories that made him the man he was. It's a shame that there is a generation of people who don't know who he is and what he brought to the world.' ***** -Amazon reviewer</p>
