'Beginners belongs on the list of books that have changed the way I
understand my own limitations.'Malcolm GladwellFor many of us, the
last time we learned a new skill was during childhood. We live in
an age which reveres expertise but looks down on the beginner. Upon
entering adulthood and middle age, we begin to shy away from trying
new things, instead preferring to stay nestled firmly in our
comfort zones.Beginners asks the question: why are children the
only ones allowed to experience the inherent fun of facing daily
challenges? And could we benefit from embracing new skills, even if
we're initially hopeless? Bestselling author Tom Vanderbilt sets
out to find the answer, tasking himself with acquiring several new
skills under the tutelage of professionals, including drawing,
juggling, surfing and much more. Witty and often surprisingly
profound, Beginners is an uplifting exploration of the science of
brain plasticity and how we can learn how to learn anew.
