5.0 out of 5 stars The Science of Creativity, 19 Dec 2004
By Daniel Sa Nogueira "www.wecreate.pt" (Lisbon, Portugal) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am passionate about creativity and Innovation.
I train companies and run public workshops.
In this role, I have read dozens of books regarding creativity (debono, michalko, buzan, etc)
This book was extremely refreshing due to its strong scientific approach. I felt like a NASA expert on the science of Creativity once I read it.

It has largely enhanced my understanding of deeper issues related to the physcology of creativity.

The down side for me is that the author does not consider ana ct to be creative unless it is recognised by others. I deeply disagree, but this was not an impedement to take imense value from the book.

Flexibility.

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!, 8 Jan 2009
By Deniz Ates - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am surprised that this book only has one review because this book is amazing! I can empathize with the previous reviewer because I too felt like a NASA expert or something after reading this. The author (with the really long surname) has done a fantastic job. A very deep, researched approach to creativity. The only uneasy truth to face is that "creativity" will only be recognized if you study a domain long enough and be acquainted with the "field" experts deep enough. But I think this uneasiness can be reduced by reading the book "Diffusion of Innovations" by Rogers.

All in all, a fantastic book on creativity. In fact, I think it's one of the best.
