This book is interesting, thought-provoking and informative. Goldberg includes new scientific discoveries in brain research and his own experiences as a professional in the field (neuroscientist). He situates the discussion of each topic within history, culture, and evolution. Highly recommended and suitable to first year university students studying neuroscience, psychology, medicine or related fields.

Really fascinating book. This book gives you an insight into the creativity process from a neuroscience perspective.

When it comes to reading books about the ways in which we can enhance our life with creativity, I'm always thrilled when there's some scientific research behind it to adds to my fascination and enjoyment.

Creativity: The Human Brain in the Age of Innovation was a good solid read, especially the way I read it: a chapter a so a week, which allowed me to think about each piece of research. A solid read for writers, artists, coaches, and therapists on how creativity in many ways enhances our lives.

A creative book on creativity! I truly loved this book and look forward to rereading it for a deeper dive.

I feel like I have read way too many books that have come out recently on creativity and they weren't all that creative: this is NOT that book! Goldberg is a neuropsychologist but writes with a very gentle and understandable voice. He reminds me of a mix of Irvin Yalom and Oliver Sacks: a blend of science and stories with wise insights so that even the everyday reader can understand.

This is a book that needs to be kept close by for those days when you crave comfort and new ideas. This is a book that should be read with a notebook nearby: I had a hard time not stopping after every few pages to write down a new understanding or turn of phrase. I'm also going back to purchase all of Goldberg's previous work and I'm sorry I didn't catch them sooner!

Well written, beautiful and fast read. Great for a quick escape and dose of creative motivation!

This book is not intended for someone looking for an easy read. It describes subject specific terminology, but it uses a lot of complex concepts that are only understood by someone who has a basic (and sometimes more than basic) knowledge of the topic. As a neuropsychologist, the author focuses on the brains functions and development and how its parts work together.

Excellent! Through and easy to read .
