Synopsis

This is the first in a trilogy on the similarities and the differences in creativity in the arts and in the sciences. While informal in tone and sprinkled with personal anecdotes, it is an in-depth examination of the topic. It specifically looks at the cultural divide between the arts and the sciences that C. P. Snow called “The Two Cultures”. By closely examining the similarities and differences in the nature of creativity in these two domains, it resolves the false division of art and science. To accomplish this, the author draws on philosophy and psychology as well as personal experience in both domains.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Ken Stange is an award-winning writer and a visual artist. But he is also a scientist. The Secret Agents books are the result of his long-standing interest in the nature of creativity. As Professor Emeritus at Nipissing University, he teaches a course on the Psychology of Art and Creativity, and in 2012 he gave a TEDx talk entitled “Redefining Creativity”. His conviction that art and science are our primary ways of apprehending the world is evidenced by his referring to all of his 18 books of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction as “hypotheses”.
