In this book, a group of experts look back at writings from the eighteenth century. They try and understand how mankind has looked at the creative genius, and how the human imagination can be mapped perfectly. Here, one can look into the inner workings of the human brain, and understand how the creative process is put into action. This book teaches readers how to utilize their own creative genius and how one can go about finding the hard-to-find muse. The concept of genius has been a subject of much speculation and debate since the eighteenth century. However, in a world obsessed with creative genius and the possibilities of the human imagination, the actual workings of the creative process and its psychological underpinnings remain a mystery. In ‘On Creativity’, a group of experts seeks to unlock this enigma.
