About This Item
Cambridge: Canto / Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2001. Paperback trade, very good condition, crease fore-edge cover & few pages, minor edgewear. 221 pp. Addresses the commonly held belief that genius is born not made. Controversially he suggests that genius is not a mysterious and mystical gift, but the product of a combination of environment, personality and sheer hard work. He develops these ideas through a series of case studies focusing on famous figures such as Charles Darwin, George Eliot, George Stevenson, the Bronte sisters, Michael Faraday and Albert Einstein.
