Resumen

• Creativity, innovation and complexity are three commonly interrelated aspects in science. Recent years have seen philosophers giving them special attention. This book analyzes the task of scientific creativity and the rol,e of technological innovation alongwith their relations with the problem of complextty. The analysis takes in some central issues of the connections and differences between science and technology. tln this conceptual sphere, the sciences of the artificial - and, in part1icular, the sciences of design - have a special interest because of their direct links to creativity and innovation, which leads to complexity.

  The contents of the book are organized in four parts:

  1) Complexity in Science as Philosophical Context;

  2) Creativity in Science;

  3) Creativity in Artificial Realms;

  4) From Creativity to Innovation. In this set of topies, there are many important contributions made by philosophers, scient:ists and technologists. The volume takes into account these contributions and tries to offer new philosophical insights for the topics discussed here.
