This book is a structural analysis of creativity. It proposes that there are five essential, recursive, confluent macrosystems that require interconnectedness and intentional evolution for the fruition of creativity, of mastery, of self-efficacy, and of spiritual self-growth. The five systems are: (1) knowledge, (2) mental operations, (3) rich emotional worlds, (4) a sense of purpose, and (5) connecting with others. This text includes an overview of previous research on creativity, while proposing a new theory based on confluence theory, the belief that creativity is best understood as an intersection and recursive interaction among confluencing systems.
Richard Brower is currently an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Wagner College.
