About this listen
‘Power of Play’ is a deep exploration into a small word with huge effects. The first book to travel the complete landscape of ‘play’, it reframes what you might think childish into the driving energy behind imagination and the mesh of forms we call culture. Spanning our evolution and the blooming of ideas, it explores exactly how our brains are uniquely built to play and create, through childhood, education and work, to all the real-world games we’re immersed in.
Also discover how some of the world’s most influential creators in science and the arts really use play and its games to shape their work. And understand why free play in our minds and bodies should be at the heart of current thinking if we plan on staying ahead in a rapidly changing future.
