The processes involved in creative thought seem mysterious and can
often elude us. Yet the ability to think creatively and
productively is vital to our personal and professional
lives.Creativity is a major economic force in the 21st century and
an essential part of everyday life. Being smart in today's world
means we have to be flexible to the circumstances in which we find
ourselves. Demands upon us can change daily, our personal
circumstances alter and the markets within which we operate shift.
To achieve harmony, balance and success through all this constant
change we need to think creatively. But how do we do this? How do
we know which skills and habits will directly increase and impact
on our ability to think creatively? And how can we develop and
nurture them? In this comprehensive full-colour guide the authors
help us to advance our skills to meet the challenges we face in our
daily lives in an innovative and creative way. Learn how you can
strengthen and develop the attitudes that enable creativity, break
those that stifle innovation and discover the techniques you need
to draw out your positive and creative side. Through practical
exercises and inspiring examples you'll instil a positive mind-set
that will make innovative, productive and creative thinking a way
of life. Take on new challenges and projects with confidence and
find out how to create a creative and stimulating environment
within your workplace. This book is for anyone who wants to tap
into their creativity and develop a mind-set where good ideas flow
more freely in all circumstances, reaping the benefits that
creative and innovative thought can offer.
In these accelerated times, our decisive and businesslike ways of thinking are unprepared for ambiguity, paradox, and sleeping on it." We assume that the quick-thinking "hare brain" will beat out the slower Intuition of the "tortoise mind." However, now research in cognitive science is changing this understanding of the human mind. It suggests that patience and confusion--rather than rigor and certainty--are the essential precursors of wisdom. With a compelling argument that the mind works best when we trust our unconscious, or "undermind," psychologist Guy Claxton makes an appeal that we be less analytical and let our creativity have free rein. He also encourages reevaluation of society's obsession with results-oriented thinking and problem-solving under pressure. Packed with Interesting anecdotes, a dozen puzzles to test your reasoning, and the latest related research, Hare Brain, Tortoise Mind is an Illuminating, uplifting, stimulating read that focuses on a new kind of well-being and cognition.
Writing principally for teachers-in-training and for new
teachers, Guy Claxton offers a fresh approach to what is often a
stuffy and polemical area. New teachers today are being bombarded
from all sides with advice, prescriptions and demands about what
they ought to be, and about personal and professional standards
they ought to attain. The person they are gets to feel more and
more ignored, unvalued and inadequate. The message of The Little Ed
Book is that the answers to all the questions a teacher must
confront both practical and ideological are already within him or
her, and that, whatever they are, they are worthy of respect. Just
as a map of a city is useless unless you can locate yourself, so
you must find and value the teacher that you are, before you can
become the teacher you can be.
"The photographs of William Claxton define the essence of cool." -
Jason Ankeny (AllMusic) "Claxton's innovative choices and airy
style, which he called 'jazz for your eyes', worked sublimely to
document and promote the rise of trumpeter and singer Chet Baker,
especially." - Howard Mandel Born in Pasadena, California,
photographer William Claxton (1927-2008) is best known for his
dozens of splendid portraits of jazz stars (especially those of
Chet Baker, of whom he made the first professional photos) and
Hollywood stars (such as his friend Steve McQueen). In 1952, while
shooting Gerry Mulligan and Chet Baker at the Haig Club, he met
Richard Bock, founder of Pacific Jazz, who quickly hired him as art
director and house photographer. During his time at the label,
Claxton snapped and designed album covers at a rate of roughly one
per week, in the process establishing the visual identity of the
West Coast jazz movement. Where previous jazz photographers
captured their subjects in the dark, smoky environs of nightclubs,
Claxton capitalised on the sun and surf of southern California,
posing artists in unorthodox outdoor settings to represent a new
era in the music's continued evolution. Claxton's images graced the
covers of numerous music albums, and his work regularly appeared in
such magazines as Life, Paris Match and Vogue. Claxton wrote 13
books, held dozens of exhibitions of his photographs around the
world, and won numerous photography awards. This book presents a
selection of more than 150 superb images by the great photographer.
Among the multiple artists portrayed are Louis Armstrong, Chet
Baker, Art Blakey, Clifford Brown, Dave Brubeck, Ray Charles,
Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Bill Evans, Stan Getz,
Billie Holiday, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Charles Mingus, Thelonious
Monk, Wes Montgomery, Lee Morgan, Art Pepper, Sonny Rollins, Dinah
Washington, and Muddy Waters. Text in English, with an introduction
in English, French and Spanish.
