Very good. Reminds me of the book "How to solve it" by Polya.

I also like the Feynman problem solving algorithm:

1) Write down the problem.

2) Think very hard.

3) Write down the solution.




Came here to say this. Reading Polya now and there are lots of parallels! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Solve_It


Thanks for reminding me, I picked this book up a few months ago but haven't read it yet. Really need to get around to it.
