“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.

##讲的是通才和专才的取舍关系，当前世界的技能格局，以及通才的技能策略
评分##莫名适合我这种美其名曰「思想上的巨人，行动上的矮子」一天到晚不务正业，时间几乎全用来读各种类型闲书，还愣是自我感觉良好的我本人。读完这本书可不得了，我腰板挺得更直了，原来我还是“通才”呢？ 不过讲真，若你有事业上的困扰（如转行/跳槽等）那不妨读读看，还是很能振奋人心的。另外感觉对于教育小孩也会有用，起码可以减轻父母与孩子双方一些不必要的焦虑。毕竟我都想穿越回我小时候把这本书发给我爸妈一人一本。 美中不足之处是例子未免举太多，一个观点被拿来翻来覆去的讲，有严重注水嫌疑。
评分 评分 评分##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’.

评分 评分 评分 评分##Outliers的作者做了首页推荐，其实两本书的观点并不矛盾，综合起来看，个人成长应尽可能拓展知识宽度和经历的丰富性（range)，找到真正的兴趣点和专长之后再集中精力出成就，先前探索的过程也不会被浪费，有range的成就反而可能会更大。只给三颗星是因为作者很多观点挺好，但论证过程太多例子看着重复且累
