Not Really About Title Topic It seems like the word "expertise" is thrown around a lot these days. We may have developed expertise in our jobs and hobbies just because we have worked so much with them. But what of new topics we might want to master? There is an inherent appeal for building rapid expertise. Having gone through this book, though, I do not think it offers any such method for this. In reality, his suggestions about how to learn new topics are not rapid at all. I used the SQ3R method to help me retain things in college. It is certainly not a rapid technique in any way, shape, or form. It takes a lot of time to do right! Flying in the face of the idea that the concepts discussed in this book have to do with rapid expertise, the author suggests slow methods like SQ3R (as already mentioned), spaced repetition, chunking, and even specifically slowing things down if what you are learning is how to play a musical instrument. I also thought that the author went off on tangents, like discussing brain function, stress, and sleep in some detail as related to learning and memory. In short, there is little new here about learning in general, and there is even less about building rapid expertise as the methods outlined will certainly take time. I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.
