A much-needed textbook for advanced undergraduates, graduates, and researchers.'

This is a brilliant, necessary work.' Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain 'This wide-ranging book serves both as an introduction to the study of creativity and as an up-to-date survey of research in the field by those at its forefront.'

This is a brilliant, necessary work.' Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of A Good Scent from a Strange Mountain 'A useful asset to those teaching and learning about the concept and phenomenon of creativity. It hits the sweet spot of offering thorough topical coverage within creativity research, but not being so broad as to overwhelm a non-expert reader. In addition to an overview encapsulating the field of creativity today, the textbook thoughtfully reinforces the applicability of research on creativity and the idea that creativity is an essential, boundary-crossing phenomenon.'
