“Range is an urgent and important book, an essential read for bosses, parents, coaches, and anyone who cares about improving performance.” —Daniel H. Pink
What's the most effective path to success in any domain? It's not what you think.
Plenty of experts argue that anyone who wants to develop a skill, play an instrument, or lead their field should start early, focus intensely, and rack up as many hours of deliberate practice as possible. If you dabble or delay, you’ll never catch up to the people who got a head start. But a closer look at research on the world’s top performers, from professional athletes to Nobel laureates, shows that early specialization is the exception, not the rule.
David Epstein examined the world’s most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors, forecasters and scientists. He discovered that in most fields—especially those that are complex and unpredictable—generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel. Generalists often find their path late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one. They’re also more creative, more agile, and able to make connections their more specialized peers can’t see.
Provocative, rigorous, and engrossing, Range makes a compelling case for actively cultivating inefficiency. Failing a test is the best way to learn. Frequent quitters end up with the most fulfilling careers. The most impactful inventors cross domains rather than deepening their knowledge in a single area. As experts silo themselves further while computers master more of the skills once reserved for highly focused humans, people who think broadly and embrace diverse experiences and perspectives will increasingly thrive.

##2019.11.25 不喜歡讀心靈雞湯/職場/功利性的書。但是這本全不是。當初吸引到我的原因，大概看瞭一個介紹，說它批判早教，grit，批判固化職業... 讀完以後激動不已，到處安利。裏麵講的東西我100%認可。隻是為什麼自己篤定的東西，非要在書上讀瞭纔有底氣堅持呢？ “We learn who we are only by living, and not before.“

評分##Point taken but 一篇文章可以搞定的事 寫一本書完全沒必要
評分##講的是通纔和專纔的取捨關係，當前世界的技能格局，以及通纔的技能策略
評分##full of stories that are bit too verbose to explain simple concepts.. finished 5 chapters (1) sampling before settling (2) analogical thinking (3) narrow-minded/biases due to narrow field
評分##"Mental meandering and personal experimentation are sources of power, and head starts are overrated"
評分##讀完整本書的收獲和讀完書名的收獲差不多。書的內容基本就是用各種角落裏挖齣的符閤自己論點的真實故事，澆上無限的瑣碎細節，生生填滿的。
評分##Finished 10/12 chapters. A great challenge to 10k hour rule and don't be afraid of falling behind. When match quality isn’t good, quitting is a better way out to seek other options you feel passionate about where grit and perseverance are in the way of ‘quitting’. Van Gogh and self-discovery of rare genetic disease example
評分##Don't feel behind.
