Reviews
The contributions vary from personal reminiscences to summaries of a life's work. The very wide variety of approaches - experiences in art and science, the biological basis and brain mechanisms of creativity, emotion and reason, the role of the environment, perception of patterns - reflects the lack of an accepted paradigm for considering creativity. The book ends with an editorial synthesis and critique of the contributions. Perhaps this will make the reader question the notion of creativity. -- Richard Gregory, Nature, Vol 410, 26 Apr 2001 This is a stimulating collection of effectively marshalled papers arising from a conference of distinguished contributors, including Nobel Prize winners. --School Science Review
