'A goldmine of surprising insights. Makes you smarter with every page' – James Clear, author of Atomic Habits The Instant Sunday Times Bestseller. As featured on Diary of a CEO. The essential guide to improving your performance, and a powerful playbook for success in any field: develop range while everyone around you is rushing to specialize. You may have been taught that success in any field requires early specialization, and 10,000 hours of deliberate practice. If you only 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 and juggling many interests. Studying the world's most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors and scientists, Epstein demonstrates how generalists often find their path relatively late, and they juggle many interests rather than focusing on one. Range has challenged the status quo, reshaped career paths, inspired parents and changed lives. Read it to learn how to be more creative, more agile, and more capable of making the connections that your more specialized peers cannot see. ‘If you're a generalist who has ever felt overshadowed by your specialist colleagues, this book is for you' – Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft Shortlisted for the Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award 'I loved Range' – Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers 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. 'I loved Range' – Malcolm Gladwell, bestselling author of Outliers and Talking To Strangers 'Urgent and important. . . an essential read for bosses, parents, coaches, and anyone who cares about improving performance.' – Daniel H. Pink, bestselling author of Drive 'So much crucial and revelatory information about performance, success, and education.' – Susan Cain, bestselling author of Quiet
