Shakespeare’s tragic takes on, Mozart’s sublime symphonies, Einstein’s innovative theories—how do these geniuses create such wonderful and highly original functions?

Acclaimed mind scientist Nancy Andreasen proposes that, because of enriched connections between certain specific areas of the mind, geniuses can utilize the unconscious mind with techniques that most folks can’t. She also explores the hyperlink between creativeness and mental disease, and she displays how most of us can enhance our innovative potential through mental exercises. Were their brains not the same as those of common people? Using contemporary neuroscience as well as first-person accounts of innovative breakthroughs from performers and researchers such as for example Mozart, Henri Poincaré, and Neil Simon, The Creative Mind illuminates where extraordinary creativity originates from. Obviously and accessibly created, The Creative Mind can be a fascinating investigation in to the mystery of human being genius.
