Creativity In Context

An update of the author's 1983 work, The Social Psychology of Creativity, retaining the original edition's preface, ten chapters, and references, with updates after each chapter. Material in the original chapters that gets expanded treatment in the updates is marked by a symbol. The updates review major changes in theory and research in the field of creativity, focusing on the ways creativity can be killed or encouraged by social-psychological influences.
