Struck by Genius

How a Brain Injury Made Me a Mathematical Marvel

Jason Padgett, Maureen Seaberg

"Struck by Genius" tells the inspirational story of an ordinary man who gained extraordinary abilities after a traumatic brain injury. Jason Padgett sees the world in unique ways, with water appearing in crystalline patterns and numbers transformed into geometric designs. Despite never making it past pre-algebra, Padgett's understanding of math and physics skyrocketed after the injury, and he developed the astonishing talent of drawing the complex geometric shapes he sees everywhere. Padgett's story is the first documented case of acquired savant syndrome with mathematical synesthesia, making him a medical marvel. "Struck by Genius" is an awe-inspiring testament to the limitless potential of the human brain.
