Inhaltsangabe
The instant Sunday Times Top Ten and New York Times bestseller
Shortlisted for the Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award
A Financial Times Essential Reads
A powerful argument for how to succeed in any field: develop broad interests and skills while everyone around you is rushing to specialize.
From the ‘10,000 hours rule’ to the power of Tiger parenting, we have been taught that success in any field requires early specialization and many hours of deliberate practice. And, worse, that if you dabble or delay, you'll never catch up with those who got a head start.
This is completely wrong.
In this landmark book, David Epstein shows you that the way to succeed is by sampling widely, gaining a breadth of experiences, taking detours, experimenting relentlessly, juggling many interests – in other words, by developing range.
Studying the world's most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors and scientists, Epstein demonstrates why in most fields – especially those that are complex and unpredictable – generalists, not specialists are primed to excel. No matter what you do, where you are in life, whether you are a teacher, student, scientist, business analyst, parent, job hunter, retiree, you will see the world differently after you've read Range. You'll understand better how we solve problems, how we learn and how we succeed. You'll see why failing a test is the best way to learn and why frequent quitters end up with the most fulfilling careers.
As experts silo themselves further while computers master more of the skills once reserved for highly focused humans, Range shows how people who think broadly and embrace diverse experiences and perspectives will increasingly thrive and why spreading your knowledge across multiple domains is the key to your success, and how to achieve it.

Interesting, inspiring and reassuring
The Book is full of real-life evidence, examples from teams and individuals, and studies supporting the view that people with a range of interests, hobbies, and focus topics are a lot more likely to innovate and have breakthrough ideas. He also discusses the occasions in which specialists are more successful vs. when generalists are. It felt reassuring for me as a person with many interests and changing focus over time. It made me feel better about my choices of being in higher education for almost 10 years, changing fields, and not settling on a specific specialization yet. I know now that I am not on the wrong path but rather a different one that also has plenty of chances for success. However, it would have been nice if the book contained more concrete advice for persons who find themselves to be more generalists than specialists.

strenuous framework actions
The author's message is so buried under lengthy stories full of boring details. It is really difficult to work your way through this book.
