{"product_id":"creativity-for-critical-thinkers-anthony-weston-9780195306217","title":"Creativity for Critical Thinkers","description":"This unique book is a concise introduction to creativity--the art of expanding possibility. Covering such practical methods as multiplying options, brainstorming, lateral thinking, reframing problems, and many others, it offers provocative and effective methods for constructive and expansive kinds of thinking. These methods are illustrated and reinforced through exercises and applications that range from science and technology to the arts; from the small aggravations of everyday life to the largest difficulties in politics, the family, and the future; and from \"creative good citizenship\" to \"creativity to change the world.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eCreativity for Critical Thinkers\u003c\/em\u003e is an ideal supplement for any general course in thinking skills, and in particular for courses in critical thinking, as it frees them from a preoccupation with \"critical thinking\" as merely \u003cem\u003ecriticism\u003c\/em\u003e. It can be used in creative writing and design courses as well, and provides a quick and engaging introduction to creative thinking for workshop participants and general readers. It shows readers who have been trained to think \"in the box\" how to think \"out of the box\"--freely and imaginatively. By looking at the world or some part of the world as it \u003cem\u003ecould\u003c\/em\u003e be, creativity offers an entirely new view of the world as it is.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anthony Weston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019530621X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195306217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/27\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.26h x 6.02w x 0.26d","brand":"Anthony Weston","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43993265045759,"sku":"9780195306217","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e39e70a6-265e-4c8a-a3fb-dc751d0cdd4e.jpg?v=1683323429","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/creativity-for-critical-thinkers-anthony-weston-9780195306217","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
