Strange Genius is a collection of stories about people whose minds are beyond the ordinary. Included is the hard to find novel The New Adam, a surprising tale of homo superior born among us, the first of a new human race, an evolutionary leap and a man whose mind is so different that he's an alien on his own planet. Also included are the humorous van Manderpootz stories about a scientific genius who wants everyone to know how great he is, and several more of Weinbaum's delightful tales of the human mind at work.

This is a book of strange tales about strange people and sometimes stranger places. It includes Weinbaum's novel The Dark Other, in which Nicholas Devine and his girlfriend Pat are deeply in love, but before they can fulfil their dreams they must exorcise a demonic presence that threatens both their future together and their lives. Also included is another love story that takes place in a tranquil world of beauty and innocence that can only be seen through the lenses of "Pygmalion's Spectacles," and several other surprising tales.
