On Creativity (Routledge Classics)

I'm an arts educator, but during summer 'breaks' I try to expand my knowledge of the world by reading books written by experts in other disciplines. This was an excellent choice. The author's premise of what creativity 'is', from whence it comes, how it manifests, and how we harness it, informed my understanding of my own field. Superbly written for the layman; brilliantly explained; overall a delightful read!

A bit of a slow read but its is worth getting through it. The philosophy is readable and coherent so its worth spending the time reading it.

Sometimes I feel like Bohm just had an afternoon rambling transcribed. A bit dry, more of a written thought process. I get what he's getting at, but don't really feel enlightened, as in there is no AHA! moment or "Ahh, how intriguing." All in all, not bad.

A revealing book the turns science, math, and physics into reading material

Gift for my son in law-was pleased.

I think David Bohm is a phony, full of convoluted, over intellectualized nonsense melded together by the sense here's a guy who is really smart. I think he's a guy who stumbled into a way to keep a long line of young groupies at his feet, and who knows where else, and from that day on he couldn't say no to such satisfying streams of bs.

came on time and excellent

Every artist should read this book.

I never though that one of the worlds greatest physicist would declare that science is art. This is because both try to make the world fit, model it into something that makes sense and even possibly show itself as beautiful.

Very good

Bohm is the master. End.

good reading

Incoherent. Bohm keeps rambling on about his ideas, but it doesn't make any sense. Although his idea that science, math, and art are connected is interesting, I can't say the same for his other ideas.
