Becoming Supergenius, Part I: The Outer World:

"This is one of those rare audiobooks that’s even better than the printed version. Although it’s a book that can be enjoyed by anyone passionate or even interested in learning and self-development, it will be truly savored by those who’ve read/listened to more than a few other books in these genres. Why? The wisdom within is original and refreshing. He approaches topics and questions in ways that the other books/teachers simply do not.

After listening for even a few minutes, I find myself rethinking problems, as well as various issues and relationships towards people and situations in ways I hadn’t before. And it feels remarkable to do so. Rather than seeking to imprint upon your mind his own values and ideas, the author gives you the tools to truly think for yourself, to unfetter your mind and see things anew. As the author proposes, “to rise above the clutter, to find silence amid the noise…” And he shares many ideas and paradigms for cultivating this and so much more.

This piece of work is as profound as it is elegant. Exploring what might seem like simple concepts into depths of discovery and understanding that should be requisite of anyone working in education. Many educators will go through full careers without considering some of these areas. With this work as a guide, the education landscape could be irrevocably changed for the better.

After reading Becoming Supergenius, I think I have found my inner voice! It has been sleeping for a very long time. I judge a book by how it grabs me emotionally and intellectually and, indeed, Becoming Supergenius, locked me in and opened my thinking. Life may never find its ‘normal’ for a very long time. So, hold on tight.

In Becoming Supergenius: Creativity and Transformation, Lincoln Stoller explores the concept—and importance—of degrees of intelligence. In doing so, he illustrates not just the ability of exceptional genius to affect change, but our collective dire need for them to do exactly that.

Becoming Supergenius: Creativity and Transformation is an engaging and inspiring book that is composed in a way that can be revisited often. No story lives unless someone wants to listen, and Lincoln has developed great skill as a listener and investigator. Sapient, incisive, perceptive, and enlightened.

On exceptional occasions at best, a work is produced that gives the world a glimpse at an explanation of it all, some grand analysis in an otherwise incomprehensible world. Stoller has done just that with Becoming Supergenius: Creativity and Transformation. By combining the experiences and words from thirty-five “supergeniuses” and then weaving them together in his own authentic classifications, he has created a comprehensive guide to being.
