About this book

Genius can seem incomprehensible even to experienced researchers. Breakthroughs such as Einstein's special relativity and Rutherford's view into the atom can look almost magical, as if insight came from nowhere.

Roberta B. Ness looks at more than a dozen scientists, among them Darwin, Einstein and Edison, to show what genius actually involves. The aim is to strip away the mystique and explain the thinking behind the breakthroughs.
