The Act of Creation - Book by Arthur Koestler

Name: The Act of Creation
Author: Arthur Koestler

In The Act of Creation, Arthur Koestler explores the nature of creativity, analyzing it through various disciplines, including science, art, and humor. He posits that creativity arises from the ability to make unexpected connections between seemingly unrelated ideas, a process he calls "bisociation." Koestler examines the role of the unconscious in this process, suggesting that the most innovative ideas often come from integrating elements from different domains of thought.
