With eloquence and humanity, Edward O. Wilson calls for a transformational "Third Enlightenment," in which the blending of these endeavors will give us a deeper understanding of the human condition and our crucial relationship with the natural world.
A deep exploration into the origins of human creativity, The Origins of Creativity grapples with the question of how this particular form of human expression - so central to our identity as individuals and, collectively, as a species - came about and how it has manifested itself over centuries. Following the commercial and critical success of Half-Earth and The Meaning of Human Existence, Wilson offers his most inventive work to date. He reflects on how we came to be human, as well as the various channels in which creativity expresses itself. The Origins of Creativity will take its place in Wilson's decorated and widely celebrated repertoire as a classic in its own right and, like Darwin's Origin of Species, will continue to influence our understanding of what it means to be human for generations to come.
