 | The Act of Creation by Arthur Koestler
Koestler probes bisociative thinking--creativity and the new perceptions offered us by creative activity. An area of psychology that is often neglected, creativity is, according to Koestler, often suppressed by the daily near-automatic routine of our lives. He offers the suggestion that it is when our rational thought is suspended that we are at our most creative--in dreams and trances, when our minds are open to unexpected insight.
