Range

Book Description

'A goldmine of surprising insights. Makes you smarter with every page' – James Clear, author of Atomic Habits

The fifth-anniversary edition of 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 and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award

'I loved Range' – Malcolm Gladwell, author of Outliers
