The title ? Homo problematis solvendis ? is a play on the scientific classifications of humans (e.g. Homo habilus, Homo erectus, Homo sapiens), and is intended to suggest that a defining characteristic of modern humans is our fundamental ability to solve problems (i.e. problem- solving human = Homo problematis solvendis). The book not only offers new perspectives on the history of technology, but also helps readers connectthe popular interest in creativity and innovation (in schools, in businesses) with their psychological underpinnings. It discusses why creativity and innovation are vital to societies, and how these key abilities have made it possible for societies to develop into what they are today. 606 $aCreative ability 606 $aCreative ability in technology 606 $aCreative thinking 615 0$aCreative ability. 615 0$aCreative ability in technology. 615 0$aCreative thinking. 676 $a153.35 700 $aCropley$b David$0852291 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bAuAdUSA 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350304203321 996 $aHomo problematis solvendis- problem-solving man$92224623 997 $aUNINA
