Edward de Bono, the Oxford-educated Maltese author of 86 books, best known for his work on Lateral Thinking, Six Thinking Hats (or Parallel Thinking), The Mechanism of Mind and The Happiness Purpose, chooses to delve into the make-up of a successful relationship, communication and codes, jealousy, genes, territory, the place of sex, the development of a relationship and the over-looked benefits of match-making. He looks at the skills required for the happily-ever-after to be lived in practical, every-day terms. The beautifully bound, full-colour, fuschia -pink hardback that comes with eighteen stunning watercolour illustrations by artist Kenneth Zammit Tabona is presented in fairytale form and is simple in style. The enchanted test readers for this book ranged from the ages of nine to eighty-one. Edward de Bono’s focus on humour is felt subtly throughout the book, though the subject matter is very serious. Why ‘cockroaches’ the potential reader might ask? Well, how are people who propose change regarded? How is change itself regarded, at first? Once the initial repulsion is overcome, change may actually come to be regarded as the more attractive alternative or possibility. How is your own design thinking (= manner of designing your future according to your thinking and values)?
Look out for the ‘Emotional Barometer for Mature Cockroaches’ which follows the main story. The reason this part was added by co-authors Edward de Bono and Daniela Bartoli: communication and emotional awareness remain one of the weakest areas or links in most companies. Course participants we have trained have benefitted from building their own Emotional Barometer – a developed one, with qualifiers, would make a great difference to many decisions taken during the immense number of meetings held daily in every company around the world, in every family, or in every relationship. Are we still traipsing around emotional taboos that are, if dealt with, tame and sometimes lame? Perhaps a bit of provocation would help things along? Perfect as a gift. A book collector’s gem.
