This final book on similarities and differences in creativity in the arts and the sciences is more speculative, for it attempts to extrapolate future developments in creative endeavor. The exponential growth in technology equips artists with new tools, and thus inevitably introduces them to the value of science in their own creative domain. Also considered are probable new forms of collaboration between artists and scientists. Its generally optimistic predictions are based on recent trends that suggest the pointless rift between science and art is finally being bridged.

About the Author:
Ken Stange is an award-winning writer and a visual artist. But he is also a scientist. The Secret Agents books are the result of his long-standing interest in the nature of creativity. As Professor Emeritus at Nipissing University, he teaches a course on the Psychology of Art and Creativity, and in 2012 he gave a TEDx talk entitled “Redefining Creativity”. His conviction that art and science are our primary ways of apprehending the world is evidenced by his referring to all of his 18 books of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction as “hypotheses”. More information is available at his website: KenStange.com
