This book presents the history of modern human
creativity/innovation through examples of solutions to basic human
needs that have been developed over time. The title - Homo
problematis solvendis - is a play on the scientific classifications
of humans (e.g. Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Homo sapiens), and is
intended to suggest that a defining characteristic of modern humans
is our fundamental ability to solve problems (i.e. problem- solving
human = Homo problematis solvendis). The book not only offers new
perspectives on the history of technology, but also helps readers
connect the popular interest in creativity and innovation (in
schools, in businesses) with their psychological underpinnings. It
discusses why creativity and innovation are vital to societies, and
how these key abilities have made it possible for societies to
develop into what they are today.
