Sparks of Genius is â€œa clever, detailed and demanding fitness program for the creative mindâ€ and a groundbreaking guidebook for anyone interested in imaginative thinking, lifelong learning, and transdisciplinary education (Kirkus Reviews).
Â
â€œHow different the painter at the easel and the physicist in the laboratory! Yet the Root-Bernsteins recognize the deep-down similarity of all creative thinking, whether in art or science. They demonstrate this similarity by comparing the accounts that various pioneers and inventors have left of their own creative processes: for Picasso just as for Einstein, for Klee just as for Feynman, the creative impulse always begins in vision, in emotion, in intuition.Â .Â .Â .Â With a lavishly illustrated chapter devoted to each tool, readers quickly realize just how far the imagination can stretch.â€ â€”Booklist
Â
â€œA powerful bookÂ .Â .Â .Â Sparks of Genius presents radically different ways of approaching problems.â€ â€”American Scientist
