Tim Ferriss has made a name for himself as a guru in the world of accelerated learning. Some of his “accelerations” are about hacking the system and taking short cuts by finding loopholes in the rules and doing things in unconventional ways, but his success is also due to the fact that he knows how to learn.

This month we’re featuring the Bottom-line on Daniel Coyle’s “The Talent Code,” and it’s all about how to learn. Daniel visited the top talent hotbeds in variety of different fields (music, art, education, sport) around the world and researched what they were all doing that enabled them to accelerate learning and create such solid talent so consistently, and The Talent Code is the compilation of what he found and a guide to how to learn.
