This book shows how innovation in the “post-Google generation” is often catalyzed by those who cross a conventional line between the arts and the sciences. Edwards describes how creators achieve breakthroughs in the arts and sciences by developing ideas in an intermediate zone of human creativity where neither art nor science is easily defined.

"Scientists are famous for believing in the proven and peer-accepted, the very ground that pioneering artists often subvert; they recognize correct and incorrect where artists see only true and false. And yet in some individuals, crossover learning provides a remarkable kind of catalyst to innovation that sparks the passion, curiosity, and freedom to pursue--and to realize--challenging ideas in culture, industry, society, and research. This book is an attempt to show how innovation in the 'post-Google generation' is often catalyzed by those who cross a conventional line so firmly drawn between the arts and the sciences." [publisher copy] "ARTSCIENCE is less a technical tool than a motivational one: an exhortation for interdisciplinary intellectuals. Edwards infects us with his subjects' creativity. When the final chapter turns from vignettes to his utopian Laboratoire, we're rooting for it to succeed."--Alice W. Flaherty, Nature. "The tenor of this convivial, onrushing book makes one think that what the best workers in both fields have in common is what this book consistently offers: a great and moving intellectual generosity."--Jay Cantor. "Edwards' book is something of a manifesto for artscience, and for the need to cultivate more porous cultural, corporate and educational institutions. Arguing passionately for the need for new collaborations between scientists, artists, industry and the social sector, ARTSCIENCE: CREATIVITY IN THE POST-GOOGLE GENERATION is ultimately a collection of enticing tales from the trenches for would-be practitioners."--Michael John Gorman, Irish Times. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Nº de ref. del artículo: RUB2042
