Recenzii
This is a great all round and versatile book - love it!
A really good book looking at so many different aspects of creativity, which are backed up by great interviews with well known creatives. I will be heavily recommending this book with Level 2 students on their work placement unit, and recommending it to all students across our 4 year course.
A very well written and considered book. The fact that the content is broken down into separate sections makes it a solid teaching resource. I especially like the fact that it looks into current trends using transcripts of interviews with various practitioners to explain the subject. A very engaging and thought provoking read.
