The Blackwinged Night Creativity In Nature And Mind

"What does the creation of matter in the universe have to do with humanity's creative spirit? What is the connection between, on the one hand, art, literature, and music, and, on the other hand, mathematical formulae and scientific theories? Taking an over-arching scientific view of the universe and our place in it, scientist-philosopher F. David Peat explores the profound similarities and connections between the Universe's "creativity," which reveals itself in the laws of nature and in the creativity of human consciousness. Peat provides an unparalleled view of the origins of the universe and asks: What acts transform matter into art? And how does creativity enter into the lives of each of us?"--BOOK JACKET.
