This book's premise, that many visionaries throughout history were not only hypomanic, but that their hypomania played an integral role in their accomplishments, is argued well and certainly something worth giving pause to. Full of examples that are great stories in their own right, even outside of his fascinating thesis, which means the book is like a 2 for 1 deal as far as good ideas you get from time reading it.

Robert Moses's political maneuverings that appropriated Long Island land away from wealthy industrial tycoons and created the public parks administration for common citizens that the country would later base its policy on are much more interesting than Manziel's party in Vegas or Miley Cyrus's "edgy" new haircut.
