I’m on the email list of Buffalo State University’s Center for Applied Imagination and so I receive notices from time to time about upcoming lectures and seminars and the like. The publication cited below is from one of their recent notices.

From the authors . . . The need for creativity has never been greater. In fact, we chose the title, “Creativity Rising: Creative Thinking and Creative Problem Solving in the 21st Century,” to reflect this belief. If we are to live healthy, productive lives in this century we must develop the mind-set and the skill set for effectively responding to and initiating change. Creativity Rising is both a why-to and how-to guide to help you create your own future. In this book we: • explore the nature of creativity • debunk common myths about creativity • describe the rapid rise of change in the 21st century • outline the time-tested Creative Problem Solving process, an approach to on-demand creativity.

Hopefully making a ruckus, one blog post at a time!
