Powers of Two: How Relationships Drive Creativity"This is a book about magic, about the Beatles, about the chemistry between people, about neuroscience, and about the buddy system; it examines love and hate, harmony and dissonance, and everything in between. The result is wise, funny, surprising, and completely engrossing." Susan Orlean Lennon and McCartney, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, Pierre and Marie Curie. Throughout history, partners have buoyed each other to better work though often one
"This is a book about magic, about the Beatles, about the chemistry between people, about neuroscience, and about the buddy system; it examines love and hate, harmony and dissonance, and everything in between. The result is wise, funny, surprising, and completely engrossing." -- Susan Orlean Lennon and McCartney, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, Pierre and Marie Curie. Throughout history, partners have buoyed each other to better work -- though often one member is little known to the general public. (See Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger, or Vincent and Theo van Gogh.) In Powers of Two, Joshua Wolf Shenk draws on neuroscience, social psychology, and cultural history to present the social foundations of creativity, with the pair as its primary embodiment. Revealing the six essential stages through which creative intimacy unfolds, Shenk shows how pairs begin to talk, think, and even look like each other; how the most successful ones thrive on conflict; and why some cease to work together while others carry on. At once intuitive and deeply surprising, Powers of Two will reshape the way you view individuals, relationships, and society itself. "Sterling . . . a rare glimpse into the private realms of duos . . . Shenk is a natural storyteller." -- Sarah Lewis, New York Times "In this surprising, compelling, deeply felt book, Joshua Wolf Shenk banishes the idea of solitary genius by demonstrating that our richest art and science come from collaboration: we need one another not only for love, but also for thinking and imagining and growing and being." -- Andrew SolomonBinding Type: Paperback

Great pillows
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: White
These are very comfortable, after few sleeps since I got them, they haven't got flat at all, they are really good looking, retain shape well even inside a pillow case, they fit perfect on queen size pillow cases, and they dont get hot while asleep.

A nice comfy pillow.
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: Blue Edge
A Recently had a pillow that broke and needed a new one. I love this pillows firmness. This pillow is expensive just for one, but I gave the other pillow to my brother as I thought if one of his pillows falls apart, he has one too. I’m not sure how durable this pillow is, but it looks pretty sturdy. It does get flat within 3 weeks after opening. It does not cool.

Fluffy, Supportive, and Perfect for a Great Night’s Sleep
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: White
I purchased the Premium Queen Size Pillow set of two on a flash deal, and I’m so glad I did! These pillows have the perfect balance of softness, thickness, and firmness. At about nine inches thick when fluffed, they easily compress down to about three inches, thanks to the down alternative fill. This makes them incredibly supportive without pushing my neck up too high.
The down alternative filling gives just the right amount of “nestle,” letting my head and neck sink in comfortably, which has improved my sleep quality tremendously. They’re fluffy yet still provide that soft firm support I love.
Another big plus is washability. I can toss them in the wash, and they come out looking and feeling like new. For a 2-pack, they’re a fantastic value for money, and I would purchase them again.

Premium Pillows
Team Name: Pack of 2, Size: Queen - 20" x 30", Color: White
Purchase these as a gift for1 of my children that had terrible pillows. To say she was pleased would be an understatement. She said that these were some of the softest and most comfortable pillows she had ever used. They remained puffy while conforming comfortably to her sleep style. She was absolutely in love and I would definitely purchase again.
