Inspired by Howard Grubera (TM)s Evolving Systems Approach, these
studies explore creativity in several domains. The idea that the
creative person embodies a system of loosely coupled sub-systems a"
knowledge, purpose, and affect that work together, is viewed here
in different chapters that explore this concept. These include
autobiographies of incarcerated youth, curricula for moral and
civic responsibility, changing attitudes of readers to text
(romance novels), as well as case studies of highly creative
individuals, such as George Bernard Shaw. Grubera (TM)s approach
provides concepts as well as methodological tools which the authors
apply to diverse creative processes.
This book is a valuable resource for undergraduate as well as
graduate level students interested in creativity, development and
education. In addition to the intrinsic interest of each chapter,
the guiding theme of the book is the underlying theory of
creativity, Grubera (TM)s Evolving Systems Approach, and
illustrates the unusual breadth and flexibility of that theory.
