An insightful, joyful tour of the transformative powers of starting something new, no matter your agefrom the bestselling author of Traffic and You May Also LikeVanderbilt elegantly and persuasively tackles one of the most pernicious of the lies we tells ourselvesthat the pleasures of learning are reserved for the young. Malcolm Gladwell, bestselling author of OutliersWhy do so many of us stop learning new skills as adults? Are we afraid to be bad at something? Have we forgotten the sheer pleasure of beginning from the ground up? Inspired by his young daughters insatiable curiosity, Tom Vanderbilt embarks on a yearlong quest of learningpurely for the sake of learning. Rapturously singing Spice Girls songs in an amateur choir, losing games of chess to eight-year-olds, and dodging scorpions at a surf camp in Costa Rica, Vanderbilt tackles five main skills but learns so much more. Along the way, he interviews dozens of experts about the fascinating psychology and science behind the benefits of becoming an adult beginner and shows how anyone can get better at beginning againand, more important, why they should take those first awkward steps. Funny, uplifting, and delightfully informative, Beginners is about how small acts of reinvention, at any age, can make life seem magical. "This is a Borzoi book published by Alfred A.
