I am answering 80 messages this morning before class (I had e-mail
trouble recently), so I cannot elaborate too much on what I have written.
I deal with some of this issues in Notebooks of the Mind
(Harper/Collins), but the gender issues are not adequately discussed. I
am hoping
that we could get a few papers together on gender and creativity for mca
one of these days. Are you interested, and/or an e-mail discussion group
dealing with gender issues?
