Michael Michalko has two excellent books on creativity: Thinkertoys ( http://www.amazon.com/Thinkertoys-Handbook-Creative-Thinking... ) and Cracking Creativity ( http://www.amazon.com/Cracking-Creativity-Secrets-Creative-G... ) They're both among my fave books of all time, though they are relatively similar in content so getting just one is fine. They cover a lot of different strategies for thinking creatively and outside the box, provide tons of examples, and have a lot of exercise that you can try yourself (and while it sounds cheesy, the exercises are actually fun)
