Reviews
"[Author Claudia Kalb] fruitfully employs diverse sources, including psychology studies and published biographies, to tell the undeniably fascinating stories of her subjects. This is an informative compilation and it's certain to provide readers with fascinating stories to share about an array of famous names."-- Publishers Weekly "Kalb's well-written exercise in applying modern psychiatric theory to historical figures, from Marilyn Monroe to Albert Einstein to Charles Darwin, certainly makes for some very entertaining armchair speculation." -- Booklist , starred review "With keen insight and a writerly flair, Claudia Kalb, one of the nations's pre-eminent science journalists, has written a book that is at once profound and a great deal of fun. She takes us on an engrossing and original journey into the minds (and, yes, the madnesses) of some of history's most intriguing figures. Kalb explores nothing less than the mysteries of genius and of individuality." --Jon Meacham, Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of American Lion "A brilliant and fascinating journey into the perils that so often accompany genius. Spell-binding." --Edward Hallowell, M.D., co-author of Driven to Distraction "With a sharp eye but forgiving, deep-seated sense of humanity, Claudia Kalb takes us into the netherworld where emotions make (and break) extraordinary figures from Marilyn Monroe to Albert Einstein. Compelling, intriguing, surprising and fun." --Evan Thomas, author of Richard Nixon: A Man Divided "Claudia Kalb uses insights about the great men and women of history to animate today's most gripping mental health headlines ... A wonderful book." --Robin Marantz Henig, New York Times Magazine contributing writer and President, National Association of Science Writers "Ms. Kalb...gently reframes the narratives of seemingly familiar but quirky celebrities and raises important questions to popular attitudes towards mental health."- Forbes.com "Claudia Kalb provides compelling insight into the fine line between mental illness and greatness and creativity that plagued some of history's most celebrated icons." - Caroline Howe for Dailymail.com "While not a business book per se, her [Kalb's] work does have relevance as more people are becoming aware of mental illness as a workplace issue."- Harvard Business Review "...mixing celebrity stories with a psychological analysis of their personalities... I found this to be a great read." - Celebrity Books "Kalb doesn't just look at the possible positive effect of mental illness on creativity... She also examines the ways psychological disturbances can tragically cut short creative endeavors."- BookPage
