Scientists typically do their most creative work before the age of forty. It
is commonly thought that this happens because aging by itself brings about a
loss of creative capacity. However, studies show that<< of scientists who
produce highly creative work beyond the age of forty, a disproportionately
large number of the scientists entered their field at an older age than is
usual.>> Since by the age of forty the large majority of scientists have been
working in their field for at least fifteen years, the studies' finding
strongly suggests that the real reason why scientists over forty rarely
produce highly creative work is not that they have simply aged but rather
that<< scientists over forty have generally spent too long in their given
field.>>
