The term "Lateral Thinking" was developed by Edward De Bono. According to him lateral thinking involves looking at a situation or a problem from a unique or unexpected point of view, it deliberately distances itself from standard perceptions of creativity as either "vertical logic" (the classic method for problem solving, working out the solution step-by-step from the given data) or "horizontal" imagination (having thousands ideas but being unconcerned with the detailed implementation of them). popup.nrat_date 2025-05-12 Close
