Compared to its 'cousin' innovation, academic research on creativity has been less well covered in journals and books. This is despite the fact that creativity has a profound role in many different subject disciplines.

This book is a unique collection of some of the latest research from a range of leading creativity researchers. Providing a clear understanding of the main concepts, this book:

Introduces creativity from an inter-disciplinary perspective
Discusses the environmental determinants of creativity development
Explores creativity research in the differing disciplines of business, music and education

Creativity Research will be of interest and importance to researchers across a variety of subject disciplines, as well as students and practitioners of creativity, innovation and organizational behaviour, amongst others.

Industry Reviews

Eric Shiu has assembled an impressive group of international scholars to review recent research on creativity. The contributions from different disciplinary standpoints not only evaluate critically the state of current knowledge but also point to where research is needed to fill gaps in that knowledge.

John A. Dawson, Professor Emeritus, University of Edinburgh, UK

Scientific interest in creativity and innovation is steadily on the increase. Creativity Research reflects the interdisciplinary nature of this dynamic field by covering the latest findings of creativity researchers with a wide range of backgrounds and approaches. A very valuable handbook with many excellent contributions.

Fredrik Ullen, Professor, Karolinska Institute, Sweden

This handbook provides a unique and brilliant collection of papers addressing creativity through many different views and methods. It may serve to make educators and human resource practitioners better aware of the progress of research on creativity and of its potential contributions to promote individuals' wellbeing and the better functioning of organizations.

Gian Vittorio Caprara, Professor, Sapienza University of Rome, Italy
