Where Do Ideas Come From?

What is the source of creativity? Can anyone really create anything truly new? The author of this unique book is a professional inventor with more than 30 patents. He began to think about the connection between his work (in science and technology), and his path of inner development, observing a mutual fertilisation of ideas between the two. Drawing on ideas from G.I. Gurdjieff, Rudolf Steiner and Sri Aurobindo, he embarked on a search for the inner source of his own creativity, exploring where ideas come from and how they develop. This is an important and inspiring book for all those involved in creative arts and industries, as well as those involved in education, social work, and science.
