Michael Michalko has two excellent books on creativity:
Thinkertoys (http://www.amazon.com/Thinkertoys-Handbook-Creative-Thinking-Techniques-2nd/dp/1580087736 http://www.amazon.com/Thinkertoys-Handbook-Creative-Thinking...)
and
Cracking Creativity (http://www.amazon.com/Cracking-Creativity-Secrets-Creative-Genius/dp/1580083110 http://www.amazon.com/Cracking-Creativity-Secrets-Creative-G...)
They're both among my fave books of all time, though they are relatively similar in content so getting just one is fine.
They cover a lot of different strategies for thinking creatively and outside the box, provide tons of examples, and have a lot of exercise that you can try yourself (and while it sounds cheesy, the exercises are actually fun)
