that consistently shows that financial rewards hinder creativity…What the research shows, instead, is that the great wellspring of creativity is intrinsic motivation—that is, I do my best work for personal rewards (out of love or intellectual fulfillment) and not external motivation (money).</span></blockquote> <p>Fascinating, though not entirely surprising.  Just ordered this.</p>
