Description

“This book is a breakthrough, a lyrical, powerful, science-based narrative that in fact shows us how to get well (much better) at the things we care about.”—Seth Godin, creator of Linchpin

“Anyone who wants to get well at anything should read [Peak]. Rest assured that the book is not mere theory. Ericsson’s research makes a speciality of the real world, and he explains in detail, with examples, how all of us can apply the principles of great performance in our work or in any other part of our lives.”—Fortune


Anders Ericsson has made a career studying chess champions, violin virtuosos, star athletes, and memory mavens. Peak distills three decades of myth-shattering research into a powerful learning strategy that is fundamentally different from the way people traditionally think about acquiring new abilities. Whether you need to stand out at work, beef up your athletic or musical performance, or help your child achieve academic goals, Ericsson’s revolutionary methods will show you how to beef up at almost any skill that matters to you.
 
“The science of excellence can be divided into two eras: before Ericsson and after Ericsson. His groundbreaking work, captured in this brilliantly useful book, provides us with a blueprint for achieving the most important and life-changing work imaginable: to transform a little bit better on a daily basis.”—Dan Coyle, creator of The Talent Code
 

“Ericsson’s research has revolutionized how we think about human achievement. If everyone would take the lessons of this book to heart, it could in reality change the world.”—Joshua Foer, creator of Moonwalking with Einstein
