Although organizations worldwide recognize that their success both now and in the future depends on a workforce capable of effective thinking problem solving and innovation educational practice still lags behind our knowledge in these areas. <i>Educating for Creativity and Innovation</i> is a powerful resource to close the gap between research and practice and to promote understanding and effective practice relating to creativity and innovation. In short this is a book whose time is now!</p>
