Title: Life Finds a Way: What Evolution Teaches Us About Creativity Author: Andreas Wagner Narrator: Alex Hyde-White Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 34 minutes Release date: June 11, 2019 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Career Development Publisher's Summary: How the principles of biological innovation can help us overcome creative challenges in art, business, and science In Life Finds a Way, biologist Andreas Wagner reveals the deep symmetry between innovation in biological evolution and human cultural creativity. Rarely is either a linear climb to perfection--instead, 'progress' is typically marked by a sequence of peaks, plateaus, and pitfalls. For instance, in Picasso's forty-some iterations of Guernica, we see the same combination of small steps, incessant reshuffling, and large, almost reckless, leaps that characterize the way evolution transformed a dinosaur's grasping claw into a condor's soaring wing. By understanding these principles, we can also better realize our own creative potential to find new solutions to adversity. Ultimately, Life Finds a Way offers a new framework for the nature of creativity, enabling us to better adapt, grow, and change in art, business, or science--that is, in life.
