“An unusually engaging book on the forces that fuel originality across fields.” --Adam GrantLooking at the 14 key traits of genius, from curiosity to creative maladjustment to obsession, Professor Craig Wright, creator of Yale University's popular “Genius Course,” explores what we can learn from brilliant minds that have changed the world. Einstein. Beethoven. Picasso. Jobs. The word genius evokes these iconic figures, whose cultural contributions have irreversibly shaped society.Yet Beethoven could not multiply. Picasso couldn’t pass a 4th grade math test. And Jobs left high school with a 2.65 GPA. What does this say about our metrics for measuring success and achievement today? Why do we teach children to behave and play by the rules, when the transformative geniuses of Western culture have done just the opposite? And what is genius, really?Professor Craig Wright, creator of Yale University’s popular “Genius Course,” has devoted more than two decades to exploring these questions and probing the nature of this term, which is deeply embedded in our culture. In The Hidden Habits of Genius, he reveals what we can learn from the lives of those we have dubbed “geniuses,” past and present.Examining the lives of transformative individuals ranging from Charles Darwin and Marie Curie to Leonardo Da Vinci and Andy Warhol to Toni Morrison and Elon Musk, Wright identifies more than a dozen drivers of genius—characteristics and patterns of behavior common to great minds throughout history. He argues that genius is about more than intellect and work ethic—it is far more complex—and that the famed “eureka” moment is a Hollywood fiction. Brilliant insights that change the world are never sudden, but rather, they are the result of unique modes of thinking and lengthy gestation. Most importantly, the habits of mind that produce great thinking and discovery can be actively learned and cultivated, and Wright shows us how.This book won't make you a genius. But embracing the hidden habits of these transformative individuals will make you more strategic, creative, and successful, and, ultimately, happier.

Seldom does one run into a book where you learn abundant interesting stuff and have fun at the same time.Whether you are a parent, educator, music lover, student, engineer/scientist (I happen to be all of the above), you have a very good chance of finding, in the 14 chapters (plus introduction and epilogue) of the book, numerous stuff that you don’t know before, drawn from the life and work of ancient and present-day geniuses. Actually, I should also add musicians, writers, politicians and entrepreneurs (the categories I am not). Very likely, while learning the stuff, a smile will also light up your face. Some examples:“A young musician arrives in New York City and naively asks, ‘How do you get to Carnegie Hall?’. The response: ‘Practice’”. The author adds that he tried that and it didn’t work. “Hard work has its limits.”“Beethoven had trouble adding figures and never learned to multiply or divide.”“The A students get hired to teach in the universities, and the B’s get relatively good jobs working for the C’s.”"It's technology married with liberal arts, married with the humanities, that yields the results that make our hearts sing." - Steve Jobs.“What can we conclude from the foray into the minds of childlike geniuses over the centuries? That the least helpful thing we can say to our children, as well as to ourselves, is ‘Grow up’”.I have already put the last quote into practice. I told my children NOT to tell their children to “Grow up”. Hopefully, this lesson I learned from the book will help to retain my grandkids’ child curiosity – one of the hidden habits of genius.In summary, a scholarly and resourceful book.
