Perkins, Howard Gardner, Colin Martindale, and Hans J. Eysenck demonstrate that creativity requires not only challenging new ideas but their acceptance by some relevant social group. Although some new ideas can arise as novel associations, others are generated by exploiting structural features of an existing conceptual space. Strong motivations often drive the creators and those who evaluate and perpetuate their work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe seven essays--although very different--are complementary. The book can serve as an up-to-date introduction to the study of creativity in various disciplines.
