Everyday Creativity and New Views of Human Nature: Psychological, Social, and Spiritual Perspectives

Everyday Creativity and New Views of Human Nature: Psychological, Social, and Spiritual Perspectives by Ruth Richards and Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Publisher: American Psychological Association | ISBN: 097921257X | edition 2007 | PDF | 342 pages | 19 mb

To illustrate this, Richards gathers together in Everyday Creativity a provocative collection of essays; an interdisciplinary group of eminent thinkers and writers who offer their thoughts on how embracing creativity--tapping into the "originality of everyday life"--can lead to improved physical and mental health, to new ways of thinking, of experiencing the world and ourselves. They show how creativity can refine our views of human nature at an individual and societal level and, ultimately, change our paradigms for survival--and for flourishing--in a world fraught with urgent challenges.

Neither a dry treatise nor a manual, this anthology draws upon the latest research in the area to present a lively examination of the phenomenon and process of everyday creativity and its far-reaching ramifications for self, culture, history, society, politics, and humankind's future.
