What do lace makers share with pulmonary surgeons? Saville Row
tailors with molecular scientists? Jazz musicians with fighter
pilots? Seemingly, they have little in common, other than being
skilled at what they do. But the expert on experts, Professor Roger
Kneebone, has spent his life finding the points of connection. As
he shows, while the outcome is always different, the journey to
expertise is always the same. From 'doing time' as an Apprentice,
knowing nothing and learning by copying how things are already
done, through setting out on your own as a Journeyman, developing
your own voice and taking responsibility for your work, to finally
becoming a Master and refining your knowledge through passing it on
to future generations, Kneebone articulates a path we're all
following - and there's comfort in locating yourself, understanding
how far there is to go, and seeing how far you've come. Drawing on
cutting-edge research, including his own work with a variety of
extraordinary experts from taxidermists to neurosurgeons, and a
tradition of learning established in medieval workshops, in this
ground-breaking book, Professor Kneebone reveals with colour and
panache the symbiotic system that creates and sustains experts,
whatever their field, and explains how you can become one yourself,
whether you're learning a language, giving a presentation, or
simply becoming the person you want to be.
