The IQ Trap: Why Above-Average Minds Outperform Genius (Economics) - Softcover
Book 15 of 26: Economics
Synopsis
The woman with the highest IQ ever recorded wrote a newspaper advice column. The patent clerk with a merely above-average score rewrote physics. In The IQ Trap, Robert F. Geissler dismantles one of the most persistent myths in American culture: that raw intelligence is destiny.
Drawing on the full, documented lives of William James Sidis, Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman, and Marilyn vos Savant — alongside Nikola Tesla's and Srinivasa Ramanujan's unresolved brilliance, the largest gifted-children study ever conducted, and the modern cases of Jobs, Musk, and Bezos — this book builds a rigorous, threshold-based case for what actually predicts achievement: conscientiousness, deliberate practice, risk tolerance, and market timing.
If you've ever wondered whether not being the smartest person in the room actually matters, this book has the answer, and it isn't the one you've been told.
