LAS MEMORIAS DEL GENIO QUE INVENTÓ EL JUGUETE MÁS MÍTICO
«Además de unas brillantes memorias, este libro es un manifiesto que defiende una nueva manera de pensar. Un alegato a favor de mantener el espíritu lúdico de la infancia en la edad adulta, para seguir siendo creativos. --THE OBSERVER MÁS DE 350 MILLONES DE CUBOS VENDIDOS «Toda nuestra vida consiste en resolver puzles. --Erno Rubik Desde su creación en 1974, el cubo de Rubik ha vendido más de 400 millones de ejemplares. Pese a que pocos saben resolverlo, su creador Erno Rubik asegura que cualquiera podría haberlo inventado. Esta es la historia de un célebre juego, pero también la del hombre que hay detrás: uno que ya de niño adoraba los puzles geométricos y que de ahí en adelante se encargó de imaginar muchos otros juegos posibles. Uno que jamás dejó de divertirse y de soñar con nuevos rompecabezas e ingenios matemáticos, y que sin quererlo inventó uno de los objetos más icónicos de todos los tiempos. Rubik son unas memorias repletas del ímpetu nostálgico y la humildad de un genio. Pero no solo son unas memorias, son mucho más que eso. Son también una explicación única del proceso creativo, un manual para el paciente e imperfecto arte de la invención, y una invitación al acto más puro y creativo de todos: jugar. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The first book by the reclusive inventor of the world's most iconic puzzle THE RUBIK'S CUBE. Erno Rubik inspires us with what he's 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 aren't just games―they're 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. Rubik's own puzzle, the Cube, went on to be solved by millions worldwide for over forty years, become one of the bestselling toys of all time, and to be featured as 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 amateur―something 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.
