Right Thinking: Flash of genius brings to light motivations of leaders Andrew C. Spiropoulos Authentic genius is exceptionally rare – only the fortunate ever meet one.

Fortunately, Jason Riley, longtime columnist for the Wall Street Journal, has recently published Maverick, a superb introduction to Sowell’s life and thought. Many know Sowell as a first-class social scientist dedicated to rigorous empirical investigation of economic and social policies.
