The author's GAM/DP theory of personality and creativity is outlined in the first two chapters. The first (GAM) illustrates the three factors -- Genetic Endowment, Assistances and Misfortunes – which contribute to the personality and creativity of the individual. The second (DP) on Division of Power in a society identifies the author’s theory behind societal development. The GAM/DP theory also explains, and can readily predict, why great creators are either foxes (people who know many things) or hedgehogs (people who focus on one big idea), in Isaiah Berlin's famous classification of all writers and thinkers. The reader will find interesting the author's application of his theory to two great foxes, Italo Calvino and Goethe.The author’s unmasking, in itself creativity, will stimulate critical and creative thinking in the reader.
