Story
In this landmark audiobook, David Epstein shows that the way to excel is by sampling widely, gaining a breadth of experiences, taking detours, experimenting relentlessly, juggling many interests - in other words, by developing range. Studying the world’s most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors and scientists, Epstein discovered that in most fields - especially those that are complex and unpredictable - generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel. They are also more creative, more agile and able to make connections their more specialized peers can’t see.

Story
A one-man team of experts, Stephen Leeds is a genius of unparalleled mental capabilities who can learn new skills or master entire scholarly disciplines in mere hours. However, these skills come at a price. Stephen must compartmentalize his brain, with each of his new skill sets being held by an “aspect”—a hallucination his mind creates with their own fully-developed personality, life, and limitations. Without these aspects, and the delicate construct of reality they provide for him, Stephen is unable to control his mind and engage with the real world.

Story
In this ground-breaking and entertaining exploration of athletic success, award-winning writer David Epstein gets to the heart of the great nature vs. nurture debate, and explodes myths about how and why humans excel. Along the way, Epstein exposes the flaws in the so-called 10,000-hour rule that states that rigorous practice from a young age is the only route to success.

Story
Stephen Leeds ist vollkommen gesund. Es sind seine Halluzinationen, die alle ziemlich verrückt sind – Exklusiv als Audio-Original. Stephen Leeds ist ein Ein-Mann-Expertenteam und ein Genie mit beispiellosen geistigen Fähigkeiten, das in nur wenigen Stunden ganze wissenschaftliche Disziplinen erlernen kann. Diese Fähigkeiten haben jedoch ihren Preis. Stephen muss sein Gehirn aufteilen, wobei jede seiner neuen Fähigkeiten mit einem »Aspekt« verbunden ist – einer Halluzination, die sein Verstand erzeugt. Und jeder Aspekt hat sein Eigenleben, einschließlich eigener Persönlichkeit.

Story
Packed with "compelling inside stories" (Chicago Tribune), Teammate is the inspiring memoir from "Grandpa Rossy", the veteran catcher who became the heart and soul of the 2016 Chicago Cubs championship team and was named manager in 2019. In 2016 the Cubs snapped a 108-year curse, winning the World Series in a history-making, seven-game series against the Cleveland Indians. Of the many storylines to Chicago's fairytale season, one stood out: The late-career renaissance of David Ross, the 39-year-old catcher who had played back-up for 13 of his 15 pro seasons.

Story
Spezialisierung sei der Schlüssel zum Erfolg, sagen viele Experten. Um Fähigkeiten, Instrumente oder Themengebiete zu beherrschen, müsse man früh anfangen und lange üben. David J. Epstein analysiert in seinem Bestseller Top-Performer in Wirtschaft und Wissenschaft, Ausnahmekünstler wie Vincent van Gogh und Profisportler wie Roger Federer oder Tiger Woods und belegt: Das ist eher die Ausnahme, denn die Regel! Generalisten legen vielleicht später los, dafür aber meist kreativer, agiler und mit Blick über den Tellerrand.
