ABOUT THIS BOOK:
What makes a genius? What is the relationship between genius and madness? How is the unconscious mind involved in inspiration? What similarities can be discovered among the various types of genius? What evidence is there that genius is inherited? Such are the stimulating questions that are discussed here with wit, elegance and a minimum of scientific terms, as a distinguished London neurologist turns his own keen mind to an appraisal of the causes and effects of genius.(Publisher).
