Genius as a historical concept, rather than as a presumed trans-historical fact, is surprisingly underexamined, even as millions of daily decisions-personal, institutional, and governmental-are made according to unexamined assumptions about it. The essays in this book show that the origins and uses of concepts of genius warrant careful examination. Editor(s): Chaplin, Joyce E.; McMahon, Darrin M.
