1. The Genius Myth
A Curious History of a Dangerous Idea
Helen Lewis examines the myth of the lone "genius," arguing that cultural bias, collaboration, and historical context shape who we label exceptional. Using examples from science, music, and technology, she highlights overlooked contributors, questions whether inventions were inevitable, and reassesses celebrated figures. A concise, provocative look at how we understand creativity and achievement.
