In a world where AI is taking over our imagination, this is the book that will teach us how to make the most of our very human imaginative advantage.
What if the most overlooked key to mental health, innovation, and human connection wasn't a pill, a device, or a productivity hack . . . but your own imagination? In Imagine That, psychologist and imagination scientist Dr. Cassandra Vieten makes a radical claim: imagination is not just for artists and dreamers, it's the operating system behind how all of us think, act, and live. And it exists within everyone.

Drawing on her original, cutting-edge neuroscientific research, Vieten introduces the concept of imagination neurodiversity: the idea that each of us has a unique set of strengths and tendencies that can be understood and activated. Readers of this book will gain the ability to:

- Open their mind to new possibilities to help alleviate depression, anxiety, and other mental health struggles.
- Boost their workouts, sports, and physical training.
- Enrich relationships.
- Be more creative in work, school, hobbies, art, and music, rather than relying on artificial intelligence to provide the answers.
- Deepen spirituality or other existential explorations.
- Develop more joy and creative energy through a more colourful way of seeing and being.

This is the first book to offer a road map to determining your imagination strengths and how you can leverage them to invent, create, innovate, and lead a richer and more fulfilling life.
