Paul TOrrance was a mentor to me re. the field of creativity.
This books tells of his time in Japan, studying Japanese creativity.
We was brilliant and big-hearted, a Southern gentleman, fine husband,
and great mentor. Fascinating book.

While his writing is not always scintillating, what he has to say is ground-breaking in its truth and simplicity re. people and their potential, innate creativity, and creativity research.

He was selfless and tireless, giving of himself to people of all ages, from 4th graders through seniors.
