What are the origins of greatness? Few other questions have caused
such intense debate, controversy, and diversity of opinions. In
recent years, a large body of research has accumulated that
suggests that the origins of greatness are extraordinarily complex.
Instead of talent or practice, it's talent and practice. Instead of
nature or nature, it's nature via nurture. Instead of practice,
it's deliberate practice. Instead of the causes of greatness in
general, it's the determinants of greatness specific to a field.
The Complexity of Greatness brings together a variety of
perspectives and the most cutting-edge research on genes, talent,
intelligence, expertise, creativity, prodigies, savants, mindset,
and grit. A variety of different domains are represented, including
science, mathematics, expert memory, acting, visual arts, music,
and sports. This book demonstrates that the truth about greatness
is far more nuanced, complex, and fascinating than any one
viewpoint or paradigm can possibly reveal. Indeed, it suggests that
the time has come to go beyond talent or practice. Greatness is
much, much more.
