I'm only halfway through it...i think it has too much science talk for me,but parts of it are very interesting! Right now i'm at the part where they are talking about talent,if you are born with it or can anybody develop talent,and they're saying if you can get in 10,000 hours of anything,you will become an expert at it. I disagree. But this is off topic so i'll have to leave this one alone LOL
