How do you make something out of nothing?

One Plus One Equals Three goes straight to the heart of the creative impulse. Combining Dave Trott's disctinctive, almost Zen-like storytelling, humour and practical advice, its collection of provocative anecdotes and thought experiments are designed to light a fire under your own creative ambitions.

From tales of 18th century Japanese samurai to classic battles between 'creatives' and 'suits' in the boardroom, these stories act as a rallying cry for individuals and businesses who want to think differently, stand out and challenge convention.

'Dave Trott is not just a great copywriter, he is a great teacher. If you can't learn something useful from this bundle of wisdoms, go to the bottom of the class' Robin Wight (Founder of Engine)
