For the Genius books started in 2010 as a line of easy-to-understand books about literally any topic that people want to learn. Despite the “For the Genius” part of the title, books are not intended, literally, for geniuses – but rather are written “For the Genius in All of Us.”™ If genius is one percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration, as famously said by inventor Thomas Edison, the reader shows the inspiration by buying the book; and the author provides the guide for the perspiration. Pure genius!™
