"In "Genius," his 1992 biography of the physicist Richard Feynman,
James Gleick pondered why physics hadn't produced more giants like
Einstein. The paradoxical answer, Gleick suggested, is that there are
so many brilliant physicists alive today that it has become harder for
any individual to stand apart from the pack."
