    Summary

    Creativity is a vast topic that can encompass so many different things. When we talk about creativity, we could be talking about a sudden moment of insight, a beautiful painting, Beyoncé, an improv group working together, a new printer that uses less ink, a child learning to tell a story, or a scientific equation. If we want to sort out how we can even try to study such a multifaceted concept, we need different theories that can propose how we can think about creativity, what are the necessary ingredients to be creative, how we can encourage ourselves or others to be creative, and so many other possible questions.
