Description

On the eve of his 40th birthday, renowned cognitive psychology Gary Marcus decided to fulfil a lifelong dream and learn to play the guitar, investigating how humans "make" music and how anyone of any age might master a new skill. His quest takes him from summer jam sessions with 12-year-olds to classes with guitar gods, where he discovers the best ways to learn. Marcus's book is an empowering case for the minds ability to grow throughout life.
