This is very good book. One can expect the same especially when the book is recommended by none other than Mr. Bill Gates. This book is counter-intuitive and challenges the popular notion of specialization and super-specialization.
The book begins with the aptly crafted comparison between Tiger Woods and Roger Federer. As the book progresses the reader can find various arguments to emphasize the notion of generalization over specialization. All arguments are precise and pertinent.
The best part I liked in the book where writer mentions that "try and failure" is the best way of learning. The learning which lasts for the life time. Short cut methods and tricks to succeed can give good results in the short span of time, but can't give long lasting performance. The score of these kind of tricks can be amazing but short lived.
Overall, a very good book for all readers, from professional to parents, everyone can find something interesting and useful in the book.
***A copy to keep in your library***
