About the book

"In the first ever scientific study on eccentric people, David Weeks discovered that eccentric people tend to be exceptionally creative. Perhaps more surprisingly, they are also exceptionally healthy, and happier than the average 'conformist' person, and the tend to live loner. So why are they so rare?"
