География гениальности. Где и почему рождаются великие идеи

The book traces these iconic places as hubs of genius, but I'm curious how the author decided on these particular locations and if others were considered.

The descriptions made me want to travel and experience these places firsthand. Has anyone visited any of these locations and felt the same spark of inspiration?

I'm interested in how much was rooted in documented history and how much was the author's perspective shaping the narrative of these places.
