Creativity derives from biological changes during human evolution as a tool that is needed for survival. The successful use of creativity generates feelings of pleasure and self-esteem that are beneficial to health. In particular, it can help depression. Current values do not give adequate importance to creativity, and the author challenges these values in this book.  \u003cp\u003eThe book contains contributed chapters on a theory of creativity as an innate capacity, the therapeutic benefits of creativity, factors that encourage or inhibit creativity and current research on these, and accounts of creativity both as individual projects and as groupwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eContributors.  \u003cp\u003eForeword.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1\u003c\/b\u003e Promoting Health Through Creativity - an Introduction. \u003ci\u003e(Therese Schmid).\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2\u003c\/b\u003e A Theory of creativity - an Innate Capacity. \u003ci\u003e(Therese Schmid).\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 3\u003c\/b\u003e Occupational Genesis - Creativity and Health. \u003ci\u003e(Estelle B.
