{"product_id":"peak-secrets-from-the-new-science-of-expertise","title":"Peak: Secrets from the New Science of Expertise","description":"From the world\u0026amp;;s reigning expert on expertise comes a powerful new approach to mastering almost any skill.\n\nHave you ever wanted to learn a language or pick up an instrument, only to become too daunted by the task at hand? Expert performance guru Anders Ericsson has made a career studying chess champions, violin virtuosos, star athletes, and memory mavens. Peak condenses three decades of original research to introduce an incredibly powerful approach to learning that is fundamentally different from the way people traditionally think about acquiring a skill. Ericsson\u0026amp;;s findings have been lauded and debated, but never properly explained. So the idea of expertise still intimidates us \u0026amp;; we believe we need innate talent to excel, or think excelling seems prohibitively difficult. Peak belies both of these notions, proving that almost all of us have the seeds of excellence within us \u0026amp;; it\u0026amp;;s just a question of nurturing them by reducing expertise to a discrete series of attainable practices. Peak offers invaluable, often counterintuitive, advice on setting goals, getting feedback, identifying patterns, and motivating yourself. Whether you want to stand out at work, or help your kid achieve academic goals, Ericsson\u0026amp;;s revolutionary methods will show you how to master nearly anything.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0544456238\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0544456238.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ericsson, Anders|Pool, Robert\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
