The genius within : smart pills, brain hacks and adventures in intelligence
Adam, David (Journalist)2018
Books, Manuscripts
What if you have more intelligence than you realise? What if there is a genius inside you, just waiting to be released? And what if your route to better brain power is not hard work or thousands of hours of practice but to simply swallow a pill? What if your intelligence could be increased on demand at the touch of a button? David Adam turns his award-winning analysis and prose to the pressing scientific and societal issue of cognitive enhancement. He reveals the potential - and limitations - of intelligence and how it shapes our society.
