Praise for the First Edition:
“ Kaufman uses a variety of examples from a wide range of fields...to demonstrate the broadness of the construct and its appeal to a diverse audience. He uses...an appealing, personal way of “speaking” to the audience through the use of anecdotes, asides, and personal experiences...he emphasizes a positive approach and openness to ideas that will be inviting to young scholars [and] cites recent research that is timely and engaging. Most chapters include information on implications, importance, and usefulness of the information...In short, this book is a very comprehensive treatment of a complex topic in an engaging format. . . “
- PsychCritiques
“Faced with a plethora of material and sometimes confusing information [about creativity] I found... Creativity 101a great relief. It offers an immensely enjoyable read while at the same time offering a thoroughly satisfying overview from an academic point of view...I found myself learning and having fun at the same time.”
