Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration by Amy Wallace, Ed Catmull

4.0

I'm not one to read management-type books, but this is not your typical sort of business handbook. The intersection of art and commerce is always a tricky place to live and Ed's book on how they built and, more importantly, sustained a vibrant, creative culture is a fascinating read. As someone who works in a similar field, I found many of the outlined topics to be familiar/obvious; but certainly you can't argue with the results he and other Pixarians have produced. I particularly enjoyed the anecdotes that showcased a bit of Pixar history, which would make this book an interesting read for anyone who is a fan of their movies. Special appreciation for him revisiting the book with new musings and updates.
