About this book
Why does a solution sometimes arrive in a sudden flash rather than through steady reasoning? Neuroscientists John Kounios and Mark Beeman explore the brain activity behind insight, drawing on experiments and everyday examples to explain creative problem-solving. They also examine the conditions that can help fresh ideas emerge.
