Résumé

Creativity is something that everyone talks about but how did this concept originate ? With roots in nineteenth-century philosophy, our current idea of creativity has emerged largely from psychological theories since the early twentieth century. Michael Hanchett Hanson has woven together the history of the development of the psychological theories of creativity with social constructivist views of power dynamics and pragmatic insights into the use of this powerful concept.
Worldmaking : Psychology and the Ideology of Creativity provides an engaging and thought-provoking analysis of interest to anyone who uses the idea of creativity, from psychologists and philosophers to artists, educators and business leaders.
Michael Hanchett Hanson founded and directs the Masters Concentration in Creativity and Cognition at Teachers College, Columbia University, USA. He has written about creativity in education, creativity as an emerging social construct and ironic thinking in creative work.
