For "a helluva good read" of an award-winning journalist as mentioned on the cover, I was very dissappointed by the quality of this book and its limited added value. I read the book because I was curious as to when it would start to get really good. And I follow previous reviews stating that the content could be better summarized in a paper. Content-wise, the quality is also limited and less innovative than it makes it seem. The book sometimes seems to be more about the personal journey the author has made than about scientific research about the subject itself. ( )

It seemed like a great paper that had been expanded too much. Interesting information, but too much padding. ( )

A must-read for everyone interested in teaching and learning. ( )

As a sport psychologist I fully appreciate this boom and the work that has gone into it. The whole aspect of skill and talent is very broad and fascinating and I have to say that the approaches in this book make so much sense.
Daniel Doyle has created a spectacular book full of valuable information and he has kept it all so interesting and not once did I get bored with the book and trust me, I've read my fare share of textbooks, academic articles and other books similar to this. ( )
