About the Author
“Media is everywhere, just like creativity, and we would do well to understand what makes the two so pervasive in our lives and, most of all, what makes them inseparable. Tommerup Andersen’s exciting new book offers readers both the conceptual and methodological tools needed to discover, study, and reflect on creativity in media industries. An indispensable resource for media and creativity researchers and for anyone with a keen interest in social science and the big questions of today.“
— Vlad Glaveanu, Dublin City University
“This book takes creativity seriously. It is a welcome and highly readable addition to the scant work that already connects authoritative, empirically driven and well-reasoned creativity research with media industry studies. It takes a cross disciplinary approach, delivering what is a pragmatic and highly useful appraisal of what is, after all, a central phenomenon in all media production.”
— Phillip McIntyre, The University of Newcastle
