Description
In this audiobook, David Epstein reveals the secrets of sports medicine: mutations, natural advantage, changes in the genome, climate and conditions that influence future champions. Once you learn how your body works—its strengths and weaknesses—you’ll gain an edge over your opponent and multiply your chances of winning.
Sports scientists gradually entered the era of modern genetic research. Over the last decade, researchers in the field of the human genome have gradually identified a connection between biological abilities and the learning environment.
In this controversial theory of sports success, David Epstein tells how far science has gone in solving this great puzzle. He investigates the so-called 10,000-hour rule to answer the question of whether a person is predisposed to athletic achievements from the very earliest age—and whether this is the only correct path.
