Why Read This Book
Counterintuitive but essential in the AI era. While everyone preaches specialization, Epstein shows that generalists—people who explore widely, think laterally, and draw from diverse domains—solve novel problems better. This is exactly what product builders need: connecting insights across domains to see opportunities others miss. His research will make you rethink your career path and hiring criteria. Critical reading as AI commoditizes specialized knowledge.
