Publisher Synopsis
'Even the most seasoned student of creativity studies will benefit from some of the new perspectives presented in this valuable collection.' Spyros D. Orfanos, PsycCRITIQUES 'The editors, UK and US academics, commissioned 41 experts from the creativity community to contribute to the book's 30 short chapters, which emphasize creativity in organizational and business environments... The chapters extend into diverse domains, including education, design, innovation, economics, problem solving, artificial intelligence, cognition, and aesthetics.' M.L. Nathan, Lynchburg College; CHOICE (September 2009, vol. 47) 'If there were one book I could recommend for demystifying creativity it would be this compendium or innovator's companion ... it would be hard to think of anyone who would not find fresh and new insights within this well organised and highly readable volume. This volume is inclusive in disciplinary coverage; breadth, however, is not pursued at the expense of depth. This achievement is a tribute to the editors, and their magisterial framing of the themes which shape this book.' Dr Terry Cutler, Chairman, Review of Australia's Innovation System, 2008 'Creativity lies at the heart of the innovation process - but understanding what it is and how it can be released and developed in organizations is a major challenge. This book makes a key contribution to dealing with this, offering a well-balanced and extensive collection of insights into creativity, built on firm scholarly research, but written in an accessible style. It deserves a place on the bookshelves of students, researcher and practitioners.' Professor John Bessant, Imperial College London, UK Read more...
