Test-Tube Experts
From the New York Times article about the 900-page Cambridge Handbook of Expertise and Expert Performance:
"Deliberate practice entails more than simply repeating a task -- playing a C-minor scale 100 times, for instance, or hitting tennis serves until your shoulder pops out of its socket. Rather, it involves setting specific goals, obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome."
