What does it mean to create — and who, or what, determines the boundaries of human imagination? Creativity, edited by the distinguished psychologist P.E. Vernon, presents a landmark collection of writings drawn from the fields of psychology, education, and the arts, assembling the most significant and rigorous thinking on the nature of the creative process. Vernon curates contributions from leading scholars and thinkers, examining the psychological origins of creativity, the role of intelligence and personality, and the conditions under which original thought flourishes — or withers — in individuals across disciplines. Part of the prestigious Penguin Modern Psychology Readings series, this anthology stands as a definitive reference point in the academic study of human creativity, bringing together empirical research and theoretical argument in a single, authoritative volume. Vernon's editorial vision argues that creativity is not the exclusive province of artists or geniuses, but a deeply human capacity worthy of rigorous scientific scrutiny. Challenging, thought-provoking, and meticulously assembled, this collection leaves the reader questioning everything they assumed about the origins of their own original thought.
