Description

Human creativity is the defining trait of our species. But what makes us create art, tell stories or make music? When did it begin? And why? Chronicling the evolutionary roots of creativity, Edward O. Wilson shows how both science and the humanities are essential to understanding who we are.

He is a Humanist Laureate of the International Academy of Humanism.
