“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.

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##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##这本书从一月读到四月，一开始觉得很棒，给我了新的启发，range maybe better than hyperspecialization and do not feel lag behind 但是一整本书翻来覆去的将案例就有点说教了 but still, it inspired me and mitigated my anxiety.
评分##不必看，很失望。
评分近1年商业/社科最佳。给了非常多案例讨论了：10000h什么时候是不必要的（late-specialization），是否应该转专业/转行（match quality+个人成长），什么时候data-driven的文化是有害的，不同问题/领域（类比思维+问题结构分析）如何移植经验，都很有启发. 最重要的是给了希望转变、没有很早确定目标的人信心 —— don't feel behind. 遗憾的是没有给specialization更多的讨论，e.g. 在什么时候specialize是必要的，什么时候generalize是好的，这样整个话题会更全面、客观
