About Craig
May 17th, 2009
About a year ago, I began discussing an idea with a few friends: a series of essays that could be made into a book or a film documentary series-each conceived around a single idea:
We in Western civilization need to broaden our understanding of the world around us. Our processes for exploration and investigation have become so narrow, focused, and specific that we’ve cut ourselves off from a great deal of creative thinking and innovative problem solving. We need to become “Renaissance men and women,” aggressively reversing this trend, and developing our ability to see the world and the challenges we face through a wide variety of different lenses.
At this point, I’d like to offer some of these essays as a blog.
