Anxious Creativity (eBook, PDF)

When Imagination Fails

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Written engagingly, the book addresses the knotty problems of reconciling the expressive potential in all people with the nation's tendency to reward only a few. The solutions to America's creativity crisis lie in rethinking concepts of individualism, competition, and the ways creativity is recognized and rewarded.
