Summary

CyberQuest is a multimedia software and hardware system created to assist such areas as problem solving, strategic planning, design and more general innovation support. It is intended to help individuals and groups in industry and government come up with ideas and ways to implement them. The book's goals are to describe the nature of this new concept of a "problem solving and innovation support" and to capture and generalize on many of the experiences that have assisted the author in this endeavor to create CyberQuest.
