“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.

##剖析瞭很多大傢習以為常的理論，提供瞭不同的見解。
評分##大概三章就能講明白的道理，車軲轆話不停地說，反復地說……
評分##Don't feel behind.
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##用 pss.plus 讀完。例子篇幅太長。
評分##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##不必看，很失望。
評分##“想要相信 或者 我已經相信瞭” 這樣是不對的，這本書大量引用Khaneman，不如直接去讀Khaneman，現階段對我無appeal | 大緻略讀 文中材料不新（10yr+）例子局限 作者本身是個reportor不是科學傢
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’.
