具体描述

David Epstein is the author of Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World, and of the New York Times bestseller The Sports Gene, which has been translated in 21 languages. He has master's degrees in environmental science and journalism and has worked as an investigative reporter for ProPublica and a senior writer for Sports Illustrated. He lives in Washington, DC.

“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.

##这类书有两个特点,一是在行文上,一个看似新奇的观点(实际上不过是换了个花样)跟上一大堆实验和案例。而这些实验和案例有相当一部分很偶然,根本没有推广价值。二是在叙述上,实际上用两页纸就能说明白的事情非要扩充成一本书。这本书也符合这两点。 本书的中心思想就是:广...

##在看完这本大卫•爱泼斯坦的著作《成长的边界》之间,心情是极为复杂的,这本书给我的第一印象就是颠覆,它颠覆了我们对于专业人士的所有认知。我们曾经被奉为真理的很多事实,在看完这本书之后都不得不持怀疑的态度了。看看作者都颠覆了哪些我们常有的认知吧:教育要赢在起...
