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

Very pleased
Color: Black, Size: 8' Wide x 30" Tall
This works great, and I find it to be very effective at soundproofing. The hinge is good quality, and it rolls up easily. It is slightly on the heavier side, but that is to be expected considering its larger size. The materials used to make it are top quality, and it will last a long time.

Massive problems with timely shipping and delivery!!!
Color: Grey, Size: 8' Wide x 6'6" Tall
I have purchased three panels at $1300 plus each. The first two came very late, in one shipment; the third in a separate shipment. I have yet to receive the third, despite being present when shipping has twice said the business was closed. The first two were delivered almost a week late after numerous discussions (over four hours with Amazon support in online chat and phone) specifying there is NO WAY the business was closed as it is open 24/7. CAUTION. Further, the video is misleading. The panels are 70 pounds. A 5’2 athletic woman will most likely need assistance to balance and stabilize the panels. The magnetic buttons work IF you can get the panels aligned, which must be a two-person job for a petite individual due to the panel’s 8 foot height. Check reviews thoroughly for the stability feet which can be purchased separately; the recommended sets are plastic and not sturdy. Overall: BEWARE of shipping and delivery drama. Do not expect this product timely. Ensure two people are available if you are not tall. Recommend consideration for a different acoustic panel system. I will most likely be cancelling the panel I have not yet received. The expense is not worth the numerous issues. Good luck.
