Humans have been solving problems and developing creative ideas for centuries. With a raft of wicked problems facing humanity today from pandemics such as COVID-19 to global environmental pollution to anthropogenic climate change, the process of thinking creatively and designing innovative, elegant and sustainable solutions has never been so urgent or important. This book explores the concepts and processes of creativity and innovation to show how creativity can be learned and nurtured, while particular types of environments and cultures can hasten the development and implementation of innovative ideas. The authors emphasize how connectedness between humans, ideas and materials and a certain sense of playfulness, experimentation and inventiveness encompasses what is referred to as everyday dynamics. All are key to stimulating creativity. This book is for anyone who aspires to be creative: from those who consider themselves ordinary or 'average' to the most distinguished scientists, artists and inventors.
