Skimming around Huffington Post during lunch, I found Jesse Kornbluth’s blog post on working with Twyla Tharp on her new book that came out today, The Collaborative Habit: Life Lessons for Working Together. Kornbluth recounts his time working with her on the book, offering us a tasty morsel of insight on what it was like to work with a genius of her ilk. One of Tharp’s earlier books, The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life, was included in the Innovation and Creativity chapter of our The 100 Best Business Books of All Time.

Need some help with your holiday shopping? Penguin Group can help, as they've asked their authors "which books they are giving, and which books they'd most like to receive this holiday season. " It's far too extensive a list for me to even begin to parse for you all, so I'll send you over to the brilliant folks at Penguin.
