  1. AUTHOR:Robert W. Weisberg
  2. CATEGORY:psychology
  3. COMMENT:Weisberg discusses the various studies of Geniuses, methods of thinking, personality and so on. Perseverance is one common quality found among people called geniuses. Lots of practice in a specific area is an other. Valuable particularly in its skeptical discussion of "lateral thinking," "brainstorming" and other proposed methods of "non-western" or "right-brain" thinking associated with pop-psychology or New Age claims.
