Publisher's Synopsis
Robert Carkhuff boldly confronts our current socioeconomic crises: "Generativity is the solution. What is the question?" Human Generativity: The Scientific Legacy sets out to answer that question.The authors focus on the five systems of human processing:Relating which captures our human experienceRepresenting which captures our images of these experiencesReasoning which culminates processing our images to actionReorganising which aligns our human and information resources to succeedRepositioning which reorients our organisations to accomplish our purposes or missionsThis book expands on the belief that all of these human and information dimensions may be dedicated systematically to community, cultural and economic successes.In part I, you'll go on a Voyage of Discovery into the unknown space of human processing or generativity. Simply put, it is the generation of new ideas. In part II, you'll explore relating as the foundation of the human experience, representing as the foundation of Information Sciences and reasoning as the foundation of Human Sciences. In part three, the authors discuss reorganising as the continuous realignment of resources and repositioning as the continuous representation to the market and how they relate to realising human and information potential.Human Generativity: The Scientific Legacy is the first volume in a series of three. In volume two, the authors focus on the experimental sciences. In volume three, they introduce the reader to generative thinking skills.
