'Roger Kneebone is a legend' Mark Miodownik author of Stuff Matters 'Fascinating and
inspiring' Financial Times 'The pandemic has made the necessity of relying on experts
evident to all . . . this is a rich exploration of lifelong learning' Guardian What could a
lacemaker have in common with vascular surgeons? A Savile Row tailor with molecular scientists?
A fighter pilot with jazz musicians? At first glance very little. But Roger Kneebone is the
expert on experts having spent a lifetime finding the connections. In Expert he combines
his own experiences as a doctor with insights from extraordinary people and cutting-edge
research to map out the path we're all following - from 'doing time' as an Apprentice to
developing your 'voice' and taking on responsibility as a Journeyman to finally becoming a
Master and passing on your skills. As Kneebone shows although each outcome is different the
journey is always the same. Whether you're developing a new career studying a language
learning a musical instrument or simply becoming the person you want to be this
ground-breaking book reveals the path to mastery.
