Description
Leading scientists, educators, and other intellectu- als from The Reality Club explore the most myste- rious of human capabilities in this provocative, informative, and entertaining collection.
In this book, the fourth volume in The Reality Club series, some of today's most innovative thinkers probe the nature of creativity. They examine such topics as the role of creativity in scientific inquiry, the relationship between evolution and the mental process of creativity, and the aesthetic experience of creative work. An essay on the people who helped shape this century uncovers a consistent pattern in the creative process; another addresses the similarities among art, physics, and reality. ISBN:9780671789268
