Practical and accessible guide to learning

Learn, Improve, Master is a quick read that provides a practical framework for learning and mastering a skill, profession or craft. There is some basic brain science about how we learn and effective strategies for embarking on the chosen skill. What I really liked is that the author emphasized exploring the subject first to make sure you know what you are getting into. I also liked that he provided no quick fix or magical solution. He repeatedly emphasized the hard work and hours of practice that are required for mastery. He dispelled myths like "You either have it or you don't." and "Learning should be fun.". There are interesting quotes throughout, and examples are given of athletes, artists and the author's own observations. The one aspect of this book I would improve would be to provide more experiences from science and medicine. Overall, Learn, Improve, Master is a really useful book for athletes, artists, students or anyone who wants to improve their learning strategy.
