by Ken Stange (Author)
This is the second in a trilogy on the similarities and the differences in creativity in the arts and in the sciences. As with the previous volume the tone is casual but the scholarship sound. This book focuses on the current status of creativity in the arts and sciences. It presents what psychology now knows about the relationship of mental illness, morality, memory, and motivation to creative accomplishment. It also considers the effects of new creative tools on the evolving definition of 'creativity'.
Author Biography
Ken Stange is an award-winning writer and a visual artist. But he is also a scientist. The Secret Agents books are the result of his long-standing interest in the nature of creativity. As Professor Emeritus at Nipissing University, he teaches a course on the Psychology of Art and Creativity, and in 2012 he gave a TEDx talk entitled "Redefining Creativity". His conviction that art and science are our primary ways of apprehending the world is evidenced by his referring to all of his 18 books of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction as "hypotheses".
