Glass explores a critical, yet strangely neglected, question: What is the role of creativity in software engineering and computer programming?

Can practitioners and academe complement each other more effectively? * Is there a missing link between creativity and software design? * What is the balance of -intellectual- and -clerical- tasks in software work? * Can we still find a place for plain old fun?
