The headline is Jeffrey Goldberg's (provocative) restatement of Walter Isaacson's themes in the book (and also Walter's answers from the interview at the end of the article). I assume the journalist took liberties to write "lone geniuses are overrated" because Isaacson highlighted:
1) teams
2) lesser known individuals who didn't have celebrity status of Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, etc
I guess one would have to read the entire book instead of an excerpt to judge if the journalist's "lone geniuses overrated" is a fair TLDR of Isaacson's book.
