Summary:

Infrequently civilized society discovers a truly wild child--one who has grown up in severe isolation with virtually no human contact. Genie's is such a case. She was found on Nov. 4, 1970 in Los Angeles locked in her room and tied to a potty chair. Although thirteen chronlogically she was very much infant-like in most aspects of development.
