INSPIRED Understanding Creativity: A Journey Through Art, Science, and the Soul

Narrator Jonathan Todd Ross's blend of straightforwardness, humor, and emotion highlights this multifaceted examination of creativity and the power of inspiration. Ross brings warmth to the all-encompassing information about creativity--what it is, how and why it is cultivated, and why it is important, in addition to how it can be destroyed, bring about unintended positive or negative consequences, and inspire social change. Ross tempers his tone of admiration and enthusiasm with solemnity as he delivers stories about how creativity manifests itself in the lives of creatives--for example, as he delivers the author's observations on how timing and technology allow the sharing of information that sparks protests. Ross's pitch-perfect performance conveys the complexity of creativity, making for an illuminating and inspiring listening experience. M.F. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2022]
