Story
Animal Farm is George Orwell's great socio-political allegory set in a farmyard where the animals decide to seize the farmer's land and create a co-operative that reaps the benefits of their combined labours. However, as with all great political plans, some animals see a bigger share of the rewards than others and the animals start to question their supposed utopia.

Story
In this landmark audiobook, David Epstein shows that the way to excel is by sampling widely, gaining a breadth of experiences, taking detours, experimenting relentlessly, juggling many interests - in other words, by developing range. Studying the world’s most successful athletes, artists, musicians, inventors and scientists, Epstein discovered that in most fields - especially those that are complex and unpredictable - generalists, not specialists, are primed to excel. They are also more creative, more agile and able to make connections their more specialized peers can’t see.

Waste of time
Reviewed: 09-27-20
The entire book could have been just one line - there are benefits to being a generalist rather than a specialist - and you would get it. The book stretched this way too much through unnecessary examples and stories that are hard to buy into or empathize with.

Great book! Excellent performance!

Great account of the founder's many struggles and unending perseverance in creating Nike as we know it today. I'm glad it was all documented, and privileged that I got to read it.
That said, it is without a doubt, the excellent performance of this audio book that makes it so engaging to listen to. Renewed my faith in Audio Books.
