Summary:
The first book by the reclusive inventor of the worlds most iconic puzzle THE RUBIKS CUBE. Erno Rubik inspires us with what hes learned in a lifetime of creating, curiosity, and discovery.
Erno Rubik was a child when he first became obsessed with puzzles of all kinds. Puzzles, he writes, bring out important qualities in each of us: concentration, curiosity, a sense of play, the eagerness to discover a solution. To Rubik, puzzles arent just gamestheyre creativity machines. He encourages us to embrace our inner curiosity and find the puzzles that surround us in our everyday lives. If you are determined, you will solve them, he writes. Rubiks own puzzle, the Cube, has been solved by millions worldwide for over forty years, becoming one of the bestselling toys of all time, and a global symbol of intelligence and ingenuity.
In Cubed, Rubik covers more than just his journey to inventing his eponymous cube. He makes a case for always being an amateursomething he has always considered himself to be. He discusses the inevitability of problems during any act of invention. He reveals what it was like to experience the astonishing worldwide success of an object he made purely for his own play. And he offers what he thinks it means to be a true creator (hint: anyone can do it). Steeped in the wisdom and also the humility of a born inventor, Cubed offers a unique look at the imperfect science of creation.
