If you have to read only one book about practice vs talent vs gene this is it.... Last two chapters are ethical and philosophical discussion based on scientific evidence..
A very good book

Interesting subject, plus a well written book. It does make some undeniable points about talent.

SpaceCowboyBooks Holly's work is fantastic! 3y
SomedayAlmost It is! Her first book, Glimmerglass Girl, is also evocative, smart & moving. 3y

A book intriguing at first, but repetitive later. It is a great motivator but an inefficient teacher. I'm writing this review a year after having read it and I can't remember a single thing. I should have reviewed the book consistently as it probably would have helped my view on my working routine. Please do read if you believe that hard work, intense work is the recipe for every succes.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of Amy‘s tragic passing. I‘m considering a re-read of the tagged book, although I enjoyed the book written by her mother much more than this one, written by her father.

Rest In Peace, Beautiful SongBird. You are missed every day 💔

“The list of things that should bring him joy should begin with his wife and children and end with something benign like an upcoming fishing trip or going to see a legal drag race. But what should be and what was rarely aligned.”
