The Pilot Who Wore a Dress: And Other Dastardly Lateral Thinking Mysteries
by Tom Cutler
I enjoyed this collection of old and new thinking problems. As with other books in the genre, I agreed with some of the stories (that I solved) and didn't with others. ;-) I don't remember Sir Authur Conan Doyle stories being part of any other collection. It was a nice touch. The English dialect and side-stories didn't cause me too much pause, and I didn't feel preached to (as other books have done). I particularly enjoyed learning about inverting beers -- something I'm sure to try.

I should have liked this book. I really should have. Maybe I have biases, but I found the premise of Jesus as a Chief Executive Officer of some organization somewhat troubling. Laurie Beth Jones writing is good (a bit dated calling 'a spade a spade'). I just couldn't get wrapped up or passionate about the arguments. The chapter length was ideal -- short with some reflection questions. Her knowledge regarding religion and Biblical texts was impressive. The attempt to draw from those stories and apply the morals to modern day situations was laudable, but it didn't quite strike home to me. Maybe I'm not in the same situations the author found herself in. I did walk away with some good ideas and inspired to be more Christ-like in my civic and business dealings.
