Creativity and Creative Problem Solving in Engineering Practice

In Creativity and Creative Problem Solving in Engineering Practice the author presents the principles and practice of creativity and creative problem solving in the context of engineering. Using the considerable body of knowledge regarding creativity from within the field of psychology, this book sets out to dispel some of the myths surrounding the subject and demonstrate that it can both be taught and applied within the wider engineering environment. With this in mind, the terminology and examples are chosen for the practising engineer – the case studies selected from the process plant industry, product design, and from an automotive company.
CONTENTS Creativity and Creative Problem Solving in Engineering Practice is aimed at the engineering practitioner in a wide range of industries as well as higher level students in engineering.
