Mental processes are the essence of creative endeavour. This text extends this particular view of creativity, first proposed and developed by the editors in their earlier book Creative Cognition, to the programmes and theoretical views of some of the most prominent researchers in the areas of problem solving, concept formation, and thinking.

Each chapter deals with central issues in cognition and creativity, and many consider new ways in which creativity can be studied under controlled conditions.
