The Cambridge Handbook of Creativity (Cambridge Handbooks in Psychology)

The Cambridge Handbook of Creativity is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to understanding the complex and multifaceted concept of creativity.

With over two thirds new material, this second edition provides a thorough update on the latest research in psychology, business, entrepreneurship, education, and neuroscience.

The book covers the history of creativity scholarship, major theories and assessments, and how creativity develops across the lifespan.

It also explores cutting-edge work on genetics and the neuroscience of creativity, as well as the potential for both benevolence and malevolence.

The chapters examine the impact of cultural differences, physical environment, mood, and self-belief on creativity, and how behavior by teachers, managers, and leaders can affect creativity.

This is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding and fostering creativity, including researchers, educators, business leaders, and policymakers.
