Notes:
It is usually held that creative thinking is carried out by way of intuition, whose largely uncontrollable and unpredictable nature leads to the assumption that it is essentially not a logical process. A framework is presented which challenges this view, analysing creative thinking as the outcome of ten logical phases. By examining the logical operation of each phase and formalizing their logical relations, adequate heuristic programmes can be devised which, if supplemented with suitable mathematical models, open the way to simulating logical phases of creative thinking on the computer. An understanding of the logical laws of creative thinking has the potential to create a revolution in human thought, with far-reaching consequences for productive activity, and hence for the nature of society.
