Creativity as a way of understanding human experience

Rollo May considers imagination and art not as decorative additions to life, but as sources from which human experience—and even logic and science—may emerge. Drawing on his experience as a therapist, he connects creative impulses with the challenge of moving beyond established patterns and confronting fear. The book frames creativity as more than artistic production: it is also a means of opening possibilities for personal achievement and self-realization.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in creativity beyond the practice of making art
  • Readers exploring connections between imagination, psychology, and everyday life
  • Those interested in personal growth through examining familiar patterns and fears

Book overview

What if imagination and art are not, as many of us might think, the frosting on life but the fountainhead of human experience? What if our logic and science derive from art forms, rather than the other way around? In this trenchant volume, Rollo May helps all of us find those creative impulses that, once liberated, offer new possibilities for achievement.

A renowned therapist and inspiring guide, Dr. May draws on his experience to show how we can break out of old patterns in our lives. His insightful book offers us a way through our fears into a fully realized self.
