Top 100 living geniuses

Last Updated: 2:08am GMT 31/10/2007

British geniuses feature heavily in a recent list that notes the greatest living thinkers of our time - proportionately more than any other country.

The top 100 living geniuses was compiled by a panel of six experts in creativity and innovation from Creators Synectics, a global consultants firm.
Top 100 thiên tài đương đại được biên tập từ bảng thống kê của 6 chuyên gia trong lĩnh vực sáng tạo và sáng kiến, từ công-ty tư vấn toàn cầu Creators Synectics.

The company emailed 4,000 Britons this summer and asked them to nominate up to 10 living people who they considered geniuses.
Cuộc điều tra đã gửi thư điện tử cho 4000 người Anh mùa hè vừa qua và yêu cầu họ bầu chọn 10 người mà họ cho là thiên tài.

Each genius was then awarded scores out of ten against criteria which included: paradigm shifting; popular acclaim; intellectual power; achievement and cultural importance.
Mỗi thiên tài sau đó được cho điểm dựa vào các tiêu chuẩn: có phát minh quan trọng; được nhiều người biết đến; tài năng trí óc; thành tựu và sự quan trọng về văn hóa.

Hai vị trí số 1 là Albert Hoffman (Thụy Sĩ), lãnh vực hóa học, và Tim Berners-Lee (Anh) người phát minh ra mạng Internet.
Võ sĩ quyền anh Mohamed Ali, tỉ phú Bill Gate, trùm khủng bố Bin Laden, giáo sư Võ Đình Tuấn và 2 nhân vật khác cùng xếp vị trí 43.

STEVEN SPIELBERG

Born: 18 December 1946
Where: Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
Awards: Won 3 Oscars, 2 BAFTAs, 2 Golden Globes
Height: 5' 7"

Filmography: The Complete List

In the fickle world of cinema, there are very few names you can splash across a billboard to ensure a film's financial success. Harrison Ford, perhaps, or Julia Roberts. George Lucas, if it's a Star Wars movie. Tom Cruise seemed a cert till Eyes Wide Shut. These names will probably make you millions, but there's only one sure-fire guarantee - Steven Spielberg. As a director, he's the most successful of all time. His films have been so popular, so consistently entertaining, that people rush to see anything tagged as A Steven Spielberg Production, even movies he merely financed. No one else has muscle like that. No one else ever has.

Plácido Domingo

Plácido Domingo, an opera conductor and administrator as well as a singer, has appeared in 118 different roles – with the 119th scheduled for the spring of 2002 – more than any other tenor in the annals of music. His repertoire spans the gamut from Mozart to Verdi, from Berlioz to Puccini, from Wagner to Ginastera, from Spanish and Neapolitan melodies to contemporary pop songs, and he has preserved all of it a remarkable array of recordings, videos and films.
