This volume's key features include: Strengthening key underlying capabilities of what we mean by imagination: physical and mental alertness, clarity of perception, listening skills, attention to detail, sustained concentration, lateral thinking, and enhanced memory.

The work is intended for a global English market as core or supplementary text at the undergraduate level and as a supporting frame at the M.F.A. level"-- |
