ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
In "Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World" by David Epstein, the author explores the concept that a broad range of experiences and knowledge can lead to greater success and innovation than early specialization. The book uses various examples from sports, science, music, and business to illustrate how individuals with diverse backgrounds and interests often outperform specialists, particularly in complex, unpredictable situations. It argues that a sampling period with many different activities, followed by a delayed specialization, leads to better outcomes. The narrative also delves into the value of lateral thinking and how combining different ideas and approaches from various fields can lead to innovation. The book challenges the idea that early focus and deliberate practice is the key to success.
