Genius Explained

Controversially suggests genius is made not born by tracing the lives of famous figures.

Zusammenfassung
Michael J. A. Howe addresses the belief that genius is born not made, suggesting that it is not a gift but the product of a combination of environment, personality and sheer hard work. These ideas are developed through case studies of figures such as Darwin, the Brontë sisters and Einstein.
