Story2
For many of us, the last time we learned a new skill was during childhood. We live in an age which reveres expertise but looks down on the beginner. Upon entering adulthood and middle age, we begin to shy away from trying new things, instead preferring to stay nestled firmly in our comfort zones. Beginners asks the question: why are children the only ones allowed to experience the inherent fun of facing daily challenges? And could we benefit from embracing new skills, even if we're initially hopeless?

Story0
Tom Vanderbilt, jurnalist de profesie, pornește și el într-o astfel de călătorie, inspirat de procesul de învățare al fiicei lui de vârstă preșcolară. De-a lungul unui an, învață să joace șah, să cânte într-un cor, să facă surfing, să deseneze și să jongleze, întotdeauna cu entuziasmul unui veșnic începător. Relatarea experiențelor lui, de multe ori comice, e însoțită de explicații științifice, care ne dezvăluie schimbările la nivel psihic și progresele cognitive înregistrate de creier când formează noi rețele neuronale: adică ce se întâmplă când dobândim noi aptitudini.
