What is genius? Like so much in modern life, immediate name recognition often rests on a cult of personality. But is that an accurate picture of genius? Could a person qualify as a bona fide genius if he was a regular Joe? The answer may rest in the story of John Bardeen. This book presents an exploration of his science as well as his life.
