Publisher's Summary

Learn from some of the greatest thinkers in history. Study their patterns and stand on the shoulders of giants.

How does one think like a genius? Is there a set definition for this? Well, no. But if you study the greats, you’re bound to learn something.

Learn the five “genius traits” and how to apply them in your daily life.

Genius Thinking is a look through time and history. We climb into a time-travel machine and examine flashpoints in the lives of famous geniuses. They are all household names, and now you can better understand what made them tick.

Learn their traits, absorb their techniques, and forge your own path of genius to accomplish whatever you set your mind to.

Walk away with a framework of how to simply think better.
