How Creativity Happens in the Brain, 1st ed. 2015

How Creativity Happens In The Brain is about the brain mechanisms of creativity, how a grapefruit-sized heap of meat crackling with electricity manages to be so outrageously creative. It has a sharp focus: to stick exclusively to sound, mechanistic explanations and convey what we can, and cannot, say about how brains give rise to creative ideas.

Arne Dietrich is Professor of Psychology at the American University of Beirut, Lebanon.
