    Feb 9 2026
    In Man of Genius, renowned criminologist, anthropologist, and psychiatrist Dr. Lombroso delves into the intriguing notion that genius may be intertwined with degenerative traits, potentially bordering on insanity. He presents his groundbreaking and provocative theory, suggesting that historys most creative and imaginative figures often exhibit what he calls atavistic symptoms—defects reminiscent of those seen in the mentally unwell. Drawing from a diverse array of sources, including autopsy reports, biographical studies, and the impact of environmental factors on creativity, Lombrosos findings are as compelling as they are controversial. This work can be viewed as a sequel to his earlier theories linking criminality to physical characteristics, often criticized as pseudoscience. However, while his claims are based on factual evidence, readers should remain mindful of his selective use of data and the lack of control groups. - Summary by Leon Harvey
