Book excerpt: Explaining Creativity is a comprehensive and authoritative overview of scientific studies on creativity and innovation. Sawyer discusses not only arts like painting and writing, but also science, stage performance, business innovation, and creativity in everyday life. Sawyer's approach is interdisciplinary. In addition to examining psychological studies on creativity, he draws on anthropologists' research on creativity in non-Western cultures, sociologists' research on the situations, contexts, and networks of creative activity, and cognitive neuroscientists' studies of the brain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Genius. Invention. Talent. And, of course, creativity. These words describe the highest levels of human performance. When we're engaged in the act of being creative, we feel we are performing at the peak of our abilities. Creative works give us insight and enrich our lives. Creativity is part of what makes us human. Our nearest relatives, chimpanzees and other primates, are often quite intelligent but never reach these high levels of performance"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of how, in the mid-twentieth century, we came to believe in the concept of creativity. Named a best book of 2023 by the New Yorker and a notable book of 2023 by Behavioral Scientist. Creativity is one of American society’s signature values, but the idea that there is such a thing as “creativity”—and that it can be cultivated—is surprisingly recent, entering our everyday speech in the 1950s. As Samuel W. Franklin reveals, postwar Americans created creativity, through campaigns to define and harness the power of the individual to meet the demands of American capitalism and life under the Cold War. Creativity was championed by a cluster of professionals—psychologists, engineers, and advertising people—as a cure for the conformity and alienation they feared was stifling American ingenuity. It was touted as a force of individualism and the human spirit, a new middle-class aspiration that suited the needs of corporate America and the spirit of anticommunism. Amid increasingly rigid systems, creativity took on an air of romance; it was a more democratic quality than genius, but more rarified than mere intelligence. The term eluded clear definition, allowing all sorts of people and institutions to claim it as a solution to their problems, from corporate dullness to urban decline. Today, when creativity is constantly sought after, quantified, and maximized, Franklin’s eye-opening history of the concept helps us to see what it really is, and whom it really serves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the Gates of Excellence is an exceptionally well-written and lively account of the nature of productive creativity or 'genius'. It is a comprehensive survey of knowledge about productive creativity: it explores the theoretical concepts of creativity and the creative process, and attempts to explain the determining factors. Almost all schools of thought and methodological approaches are represented. The facts and ideas discussed are drawn not only from the findings of psychological research but also from biographical studies, autobiographical accounts and personal documents, illustrating the interacting influences of social environments, personality, life experiences, etc. This clear and comprehensive account of the determinants and processes of creativity will appeal to undergraduates and graduate students of psychology and is readily accessible to the general reader.

Download or read book Brain Stimulation and Behavioral Change written by Claudio Lucchiari and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eBook entitled “Brain Stimulation and Behavioral Change” is a collection of articles about the use of transcranial electric stimulation (tES) to change behaviors and face pathological conditions, to enhance cognition and to explore cerebral functions using safe and non-invasive brain modulation techniques. The tESs include transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), transcranial alternate current stimulation (tACS), and, due to the way it induces changes in the brain, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). The use of tES has recently exploded. Certainly, one reason for this explosion of research is that it is a cheap way to change behavior. However, on the other hand, we still know very little about the neural mechanisms that underlie tES. The present eBook includes both original studies and reviews. It covers a wide scope of arguments, including studies aimed at testing the potential ability of tES in mitigating physical and psychiatric symptoms, and to support neurological rehabilitation, enhancing reading abilities, motor abilities, and creativity. Furthermore, some contributions about the role of tES in discovering and mapping the neuro-functional correlates of higher cognitive functions are also included. The common background of the contributions included in the eBook lies in the idea that we need sound scientific evidence about how to move these techniques from labs to real-life contexts. Addressing these issues and understanding the real potentialities of tES in clinical and non-clinical applications require a significant cross-fertilization between disciplines. We hope this eBook will be able to boost the discussion on this vital topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the potential educational technologies have for transforming education in the Middle East. Although technology has increasingly become a part of classrooms around the globe over recent decades, its application in classrooms in the MENA region remains underused and this book draws on a case study from the Arabian Gulf to examine the beneficial impact technologies have on teaching and learning. The book identifies the many social and cultural pressures that prevent government technology policies to be implemented in the way that the international community would find recognisable and acceptable and how education policy from the Global North is transplanted into a separate context without considering the different requirements. The study seeks to address the ways in which educational technology policy in government schools plays a part in the enactment of education reforms and how government policy aspirations are played out in practice. diviv>
