"Compilación de veintidós ensayos periodísticos que exploran el trasfondo social, psicológico y económico de diversos personajes y fenómenos de la cultura contemporánea. Dividida en tres secciones, la obra analiza la mente de inventores y "pequeños genios" subestimados (como el encantador de perros César Millán o el creador de la píldora anticonceptiva), cuestiona las limitaciones de las predicciones intelectuales y médicas (como los sesgos en mamografías y el colapso de Enron), y examina los criterios sesgados con los que la sociedad evalúa el talento, la personalidad y la inteligencia humana." -- Google Gemini.
