Abstract

The ten essays appearing in this volume provide the reader with a panoply of insights which are perceptive and illuminating, as well as--one might say with some seriousness--"creative." Several of the authors are unanimous in contending that creativity involves at least the production of something new, original, and unique, something emergent, unexpected, and unpredictable. In addition, some of them highlight, as a feature of creative products, their combination of "previously unrelated structures in such a way that you get more out of the emergent whole than you have put in".
