Superhuman

Life at the Extremes of Mental and Physical Ability

Rowan Hooper
Rowan Hooper, managing editor at the New Scientist, explores the peaks of human attainment. As part of his investigation, he interviews high achievers from a diverse range of fields – from scientists, memory champions and opera stars to polyglots and ultrarunners, as well as the experts who study them. He goes on to assess the science of peak potential, reviewing the role of genetics alongside the often quoted 10,000 hours of practice.
