7 Days of Genius: The Geography of Genius

Acclaimed travel writer Eric Weiner journeys from Athens to Silicon Valley—and throughout history—to show how creative genius flourishes in specific places at specific times.

The connection between our surroundings and our most innovative ideas can be traced back through history. With insight and humor, Weiner walks the same paths as great figures from colonial-era Calcutta to Song Dynasty Hangzhou, asking, “What was in the air, and can we bottle it?”—starting a  conversation about the importance of culture in nurturing creativity.
