Description

In this philosophical exploration of creativity, the author describes the many different types of creativity and their varied manifestations within and across all the arts and sciences. His approach is pluralistic rather than abstract or dogmatic. His reflections amplify recent discoveries in cognitive science and neurobiology by aligning them with the aesthetic, affective, and phenomenological framework of experience and behavior that characterizes the human quest for meaning.
