The Creativity Reader
Oxford University Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-19-084170-6 (ISBN)
Through its wide historical focus, this Reader challenges the widespread assumption that creativity research is mainly a product of the second half of the twentieth century. Featuring primary sources interpreted through the lenses of leading contemporary scholars, The Creativity Reader testifies to the incredible richness of this field of study, helps us understand its current developments, and anticipates its future directions. The texts included here, many of them little known or forgotten, are part of the living history of creativity studies. Indeed, an examination of these seminal papers helps the new generation of creativity and innovation researchers to be mindful of the past and unafraid to explore it.
Vlad Glaveanu is Associate Professor, Head of the Department of Psychology and Director of the Webster Center for Creativity and Innovation at Webster University Geneva, Switzerland, as well as Associate Professor II at SLATE, University of Bergen, Norway. He obtained his PhD from the London School of Economics. His work develops a sociocultural account of creativity and imagination, collaboration, and perspective-taking.
