| Summary, etc. |
Public administrators - both practitioners and academics need to develop critical thinking skill. The mental exercise required to assess the validity of myths and metaphors can help develop this capacity to think beyond boundarics of problems. Drawing from the work of diverse authors such as Perey Bysshe Shelley, the early nineteenth. century port, and more current works of the philosopher Neeson Goodman, this article shows how the conflict inherent in metaphors can be an exercise in creativity. Examples particluary relevant to public administration are drawn from Homer's Odyssey. |
