This is an eclectic book of historical facts about geniuses, ranging from their choice in clothes, pets, sciences, and ways to hook up. For those who aren't geniuses, this is a way to make fun of them for being just as human. For geniuses who fit the bill, make fun of yourself.
This book pokes fun at the fact that genius is not just an inherent trait; it has its own culture. Thus, it is subjected to the same qualities that all other Groups exhibit.

I love, love, love the "genius" writers at Mental Floss. So far I am learning quite a lot to fake my way through any conversational situation. I am enjoying reading this in bits and pieces. It is a fun, easy, humorous read. And I will definitely declare myself a "genius" when I am done.

As always, I do adore the books by Mental_Floss.
This one teaches you about geniuses and things that geniuses should know ... so you can at least disguise yourself as a genius.
