What if genius isn't born - but deliberately made?

For more than three centuries, ambitious parents have treated childhood as a laboratory. They began Greek at age 3, put a putter in a crib at six months, filled houses with tens of thousands of chess books, and turned family life into a full-time experiment in human potential.

The results were extraordinary - and often devastating.

Raising Genius is the first comparative case-register of deliberate human cultivation. From John Stuart Mill's reasoning machine education and the Polgár sisters' chess experiment, to Tiger Woods, the Williams sisters, Leopold Mozart, Kim Ung-Yong, and William James Sidis, this book examines what happened when parents set out to manufacture exceptional ability.

Drawing on primary autobiographies, institutional records, and verified historical sources, it reveals:
