Summary

Since it was first published in 1993, Creating Mindshas served as a peerless guide to the creative self. Now available as a paperback reissue with a new introduction by the author, the book uses portraits of seven extraordinary individuals to reveal the patterns that drive the creative process--and to demonstrate how circumstance also plays an indispensable role in creative success.
