Such creative insights, as psychological scientists call them, were what conveyed an important discovery in the science of genetics to Nobel laureate Barbara McClintock, the melody of a Beatles ballad to Paul McCartney, and an understanding of the cause of human suffering to the Buddha. But these moments of clarity are not given only to the famous.

They discuss how various conditions affect the likelihood of your having an insight, when insight is helpful and when deliberate methodical thought is better suited to a task, what the relationship is between insight and intuition, and how the brain’s right hemisphere contributes to creative thought.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWritten in a lively, engaging style, this book goes beyond scientific principles to offer productive techniques for realizing your creative potential—at home and at work.

Go to a baseball game with the director of a classic Disney Pixar movie to learn about one important type of aha moment. Observe the behind-the-scenes arrangements for an Elvis Presley concert to learn why the timing of insights is crucial.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAccessible and compelling, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Eureka Factor\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e is a fascinating look at the human brain and its seemingly infinite capacity to surprise us.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41082008797390,"sku":"9781400068548","price":19.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/0883\/2974\/products\/9781400068548_1.jpg?v=1676605502","url":"https:\/\/www.bookxcess.live\/products\/the-eureka-factor-aha-moments-creative-insight-and-the-brain-9781400068548","provider":"BookXcess","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
