In this episode I'll be challenging the idea that human progress owes its advancement to the efforts of a few, that society has progressed by riding the coattails of giants; those individuals that history tells us made the greatest contributions. While the narrative that so-called geniuses contribute far more than others seems to make sense, does it hold up to what we know about how problems are solved? While history paints the picture that geniuses bring forth the momentous, the memorable, the profound, is it possible this attribution to the few is more narrative fallacy than reality?
