Where does creativity come from? Why are some people more creative than others?
Eminent
neuropsychologist Christine Temple navigates a wide range of factors
from the hard science (visual memory, spatial ability, brain functions)
to the environmental (the 'mad genius' myth, and Gladwell's 10,000 hours
of practice) in her study of what contributes to creativity.
Using
Pablo Picasso as her model of a creative genius, she weighs up each
theory as it applies to Picasso and shows how his own creativity came
from a combination of many factors.
In this book, she looks at
Picasso's playful mindset and passionate relationships, investigates the
possibility that genius is genetic and can be inherited in families,
considers whether creative genii perceive the world in a different way,
and determines whether single-mindedness and focus play a part. This is
the first book to look at a multitude of traits in creativity, and nail
down the key factors that matter (and also which ones don't) to provide
an overall picture of this fascinating area, linking the science to the
personal.
