别人说过的话我就不重复了，只补充一本：阿瑟·库斯勒（Arthur Koestler）探讨人类创造力的《创造的行动》（The Act of Creation）。这书读起来挺厚重，但脑洞大开的程度无与伦比，我真的是时不时就得停下来，去琢磨、去写写画画刚刚读到的内容。太吸引人了！……
not going to repeat what's already been said so I will just add one: The Act of Creation by Arthur Koestler about human creativity. This was a heavy read but mind-bending like no other, literally had to put it down every now and then to contemplate/write/sketch what I just read. Fascinating!…
……价值极其存疑。另外还有几本书（只有 1 本是 1990 年后出版的）：- 马丁代尔（Martindale）的《发条缪斯》（A Clockwork Muse）- 贝弗里奇（Beveridge）的《科学研究的艺术》（The Art of a Scientific Investigation）- 威尔逊（Wilson）的《爱德华·威尔逊的最后通识》（Consilience）- 库斯勒的《创造的行动》。最后我还想推荐《心灵的笔记本》（Notebooks of the Mind）。不知道为啥突然想到了它，但它是我推荐的这批书里最棒的一本。
…extremely questionable value. Some more titles are (only 1 published after 1990): - A Clockwork Muse by Martindale - The Art of a Scientific Investigation by Beveridge - Consilience by Wilson - The Act of Creation by Koestler Finally I would recommend “Notebooks of the Mind”. Don’t know why I just thought of it but it’s the best book of the bunch I recommended.
…basic pattern in common, which he attempts to define. This is mentioned in Alan Kay's OOPSLA97 talk. > So I'm going to use a metaphor here for this talk which is drawn from wonderful book called The Act of Creation by Arthur Koestler.

I would recommend that anyone who is interested in exploring these ideas read "The Act of Creation" by Arthur Koestler. He explores how things we think of as creativitity are fundamentally similar to how humour works in that they discover connections between things we previously thought of as being…

This is a really good question! It partly has to do with the "pink-plane/blue-plane" idea (shown in lecture II and in lots of talks I've given) that I adapted from Arthur Koestler's terrific book "Act of Creation". There is much to think about there. We are on the good side of this because we can look at history and get some sense of qualitative changes of Outlook, and we can also look at Anthropology and other…

……共同的基本模式，并试图对此做出定义。艾伦·凯（Alan Kay）在 OOPSLA97 的演讲中提到过这个。> 所以我在这场演讲里要用一个隐喻，它出自阿瑟·库斯勒一本极棒的书，叫《创造的行动》。库斯勒早年是个小说家，晚年成了认知科学家。他写的这本巨著探讨了创造力究竟是什么。学习，他意识到学习……

我建议任何对探讨这些想法感兴趣的人都去读读阿瑟·库斯勒的《创造的行动》。他在书中探讨了我们所认为的创造力，其底层运作方式其实和幽默极其相似，都是在发现那些我们此前认为……的事物之间的联系。

这个问题问得真好！它在一定程度上跟我从阿瑟·库斯勒那本极棒的《创造的行动》里借鉴来的“粉色平面/蓝色平面”（pink-plane/blue-plane）概念有关（在第二讲以及我做过的很多演讲里都展示过）。这里面有很多值得深思的东西。我们处于有利的一方，因为我们可以回顾历史，对认知的质变有所感知，我们还可以研究人类学和其他……
