This week, our featured book is David Epstein's 'Range: How Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World'.

Think success comes from specialising early? Epstein flips that myth on its head, showing how dabblers and idea-mixers often prevail.

Not all reading is measured in pages.

Our featured book this week is Blink by Malcolm Gladwell.

There’s too much noise and not enough insight online.

So we built Eloquent Shelf — a quiet corner of the web for readers who prefer depth over distraction.

Each week, we summarize one great non-fiction book — exploring the ideas that make us think, grow, and question.
