## Description

David Epstein's first two books – The Sports Gene and Range – were brilliant, but Inside the Box is his best. Epstein takes a simple but counterintuitive idea – that creativity requires constraints – and brings it alive through a fascinating series of stories. I won't think about my own work the same way ever again
