A short but engaging look at why play is so important for people of
all ages and how it can help us become better, more creative
adults. In Play, Marc Malmdorf Andersen argues that playing is not
just for kids and the young at heart. He explains how it is
something of a scientific process, and how tinkering with one
hare-brained idea after another can help us become better, more
creative adults. When we play, we develop trust and intimacy, solve
problems, and explore our own minds and the world around us.
Malmdorf Andersen charts the evolution of play and evaluates the
research in developmental psychology and biology that supports his
claim. By defining different types of play, he reveals the close
relationships between play and learning and between creativity and
innovation. Reflections In Reflections, a series copublished with
Denmark's Aarhus University Press, scholars deliver 60-page
reflections on a key concept that encapsulates their years of study
and research. These books present unique insights on a wide range
of topics and concepts-everything from love, trust, and play to
corruption, welfare, and sleep-that entertain and enlighten readers
with exciting discoveries and new perspectives.
