- Witty, sharp and enlightening . . . This book will make you smarter' - Adam Rutherford, author of A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived What if you have more intelligence than you realize? What if there is a genius inside you, just waiting to be released? And what if the route to better brain power is not hard work or thousands of hours of practice but to simply swallow a pill? In The Genius Within, the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Man Who Couldn't Stop, David Adam, explores the ground-breaking neuroscience of cognitive enhancement that is changing the way the brain and the mind works - to make it better, sharper, more focused and, yes, more intelligent. Sharing his own experiments with revolutionary smart drugs and electrical brain stimulation, he delves into the sinister history of intelligence tests, meets savants and brain hackers and reveals how he boosted his own IQ to cheat his way into Mensa. Are you ready to challenge your perception of intelligence and start your adventure of cognitive expansion? Unmask the genius within you with this compelling dive into cognitive neuroscience and the human mind's immense potential.
