The Physical Genius
- projectileboy 19y agoOld, but fabulous. Stellar writing, even by Gladwell's standards.
- jraines 19y agoEqually awesome writing on another example, Roger Federer[1], by David Foster Wallace, a MacArthur guy and one of my favorite 3 writers ever: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/20/sports/playmagazine/20federer.html?pagewanted=all http://www.nytimes.com/2006/08/20/sports/playmagazine/20fede... Sorry for the non-hacker content, but since the article's already here, no harm in commenting I suppose. [1] Federer is, I would contend, the world's pre-eminent physical genius, though I don't know any brain surgeons.
