We tell girls that they can be anything, so why do 90 percent of Americans believe that geniuses are almost always men? New York Times bestselling journalist and creator and host of the podcast The Gratitude Diaries Janice Kaplan explores the powerful forces that have rigged the systemand celebrates the women geniuses, past and present, who have triumphed anyway.Even in this time of rethinking womens roles, we define genius almost exclusively through male achievement. When asked to name a genius, people mention Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, and Steve Jobs. As for great women? In one survey, the only female genius anyone listed was Marie Curie.Janice Kaplan, the New York Times bestselling author of The Gratitude Diaries, set out to determine why the extraordinary work of so many women has been brushed aside.

Through interviews with neuroscientists, psychologists, and dozens of women geniuses at work in the world todayincluding Nobel Prize winner Frances Arnold and AI expert FeiFei Lishe proves that genius isn't just about talent.
