A significant portion ong>ofong> the material draws overtly from Bohm's perceptions as a practising scientist - his notions ong>ofong> what underlies a paradigm shift, or how laws ong>ofong> nature, theories and hypotheses are perceived, rationalized and axiomatized.

He explores these similarities at length and even goes so far as to suggest that the creative processes ong>ofong> the scientist and the artist are at work in every person. On Creativity is a fascinating read for Bohm aficionados and for those interested in exploring the relation between creativity in art and science.
