Tony Buzan's 1994 tabulation of the 25 greatest geniuses of all time (by GS)

*(Paraphrased from Tony Buzan)* Geniuses are pivotal figures in our consciousness. People like Leonardo da Vinci and Isaac Newton come to represent and define genius in our minds. Geniuses invent things and expand our understanding, knowledge and abundance. Steadfast in their refusal to live a mediocre life, they plunge into their chosen field(s); their creativity, brilliance, and innovation leave indelible marks on the world.
