Overview
For years, experts have been saying that to become the best at something, one must focus on that skill and only that skill for thousands of hours. But recent research has shown that this school of thought is not necessarily true.
In Range, David Epstein carefully examines the world’s most successful people and discovers that in most fields—especially those that are complex and unpredictable— by far the greatest athletes, artists, musicians, and scientists are those who have garnered a wide skillset beginning at a young age, not those who specialized early in one skill.
Carefully adapted for young readers, this book follows inspirational stories of athletes, artists, scientists, and other accomplished adults across many disciplines and provides you with the tools to tap into your limitless potential. How will you expand your range?
This is an accessible and fun social sciences book, with fun behind-the-scenes stories of incredible achievers and their accomplishments, perfect for sports fans and those trying to find their path.
