Synopsis
Continuing to build on subjects previously explored in The Creative Economy, this investigative study applies ecological principles to the concepts of creativity and innovation, arguing that creativity is a fundamental part of being human and showing that it can be applied to free thinking and the overall development of new ideas. Demonstrating how creativity depends on a mixture of environmental conditions, such as diversity, change, learning, and adaptation, this radical combination of physical and creative economies provides a holistic, visionary model for anyone who wants to think independently, develop new ideas, help maintain and develop society at large, and work for the greater good.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. One of two inaugural titles in the new UQP Creative Economy + Innovation Culture series - 'new knowledge for the new economy'Following on from his groundbreaking The Creative Economy in 2001, John Howkins' new book grew out of a research project for the Chinese State Council. Asked to provide a global overview of the creative economy, he took the opportunity to go back to first principles and work out a general theory that identifies three general conditions for a creative ecology- talent, freedom and markets. From this he proposes an evolved concept of the creative ecology. This is leading thinking for a new knowledge economy.
