Homo Creativus
This book focuses on creativity and showcases a specific approach to creativity. It uses a new 7 C’s basis for understanding creativity (creators, creating, cooperation, context, creations, consumption, and curricula). This new approach to creativity is an extension of the 4 ‘P’ approach (person, process, press, and product) which has dominated the literature since the 1960s. In each section, there are two chapters, which illustrate work on the topic and focus on some key issues.
Screenwriting from the Inside Out
This book provides aspiring screenwriters with a practical and informed way to learn how to think and write like a “creative”.

Using a stepped approach, it shows the writer how to understand that how we think, shapes what we write, so that we may write better.

A Century of Contributions to Gifted Education

Bookended by Sir Francis Galton’s Hereditary Genius published in 1869, and Sidney Marland’s report to the United States Congress in 1972, each chapter represents the life and work of a key figure in the development of the field.
