Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - When attempting to master a new skill, human instinct drives us to practice a single motion or concept repeatedly until it feels easy and fluid. This technique, known as block practice, creates a highly satisfying illusion of rapid progress. However, neurological scans reveal that this comfortable repetition completely bypasses the brain's long-term storage centers, ensuring that the newly acquired skill vanishes within days.Interleaved Retrieval introduces the counter-intuitive biological science of desirable difficulty. To permanently cement complex knowledge, learners must aggressively randomize their study sessions, constantly switching between completely unrelated topics. This constant cognitive pivoting is deeply frustrating and slows down initial performance, but the acute mental friction forces the brain to forge robust, indestructible neural pathways.Destroy the myth of comfortable learning. Implement the exact neurological frameworks of randomized retrieval to hack your neuroplasticity, allowing you to absorb advanced mathematics, foreign languages, or complex physical mechanics with ruthless, permanent efficiency.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. "Third ed., revised" ; xi, 591 pages : illustrations ; 29 cm. ; LC: GV981 ; OCLC: 51021505 ; ISBN: 0394490207; 9780394490205 LCCN: 75-8244 ; green cloth, scuffed ; no dustjacket ; "Widely regarded as the definitive account of America's love affair with the world's greatest game, this magisterial volume is Herbert Warren Wind's masterpiece." ; "From John Reid, the expatriate Scotsman who imported a set of clubs and balls from St. Andrews in 1888 and built a three-hole course on a cow pasture in Yonkers, New York, to Alan Shepard's six-iron shot on the surface of the moon, The Story of American Golf documents the iconic moments in the sport's first century in the United States. Wind captures legendary players, including C. B. Macdonald, Bobby Jones, Byron Nelson, Babe Didrikson Zaharias, Ben Hogan, and Jack Nicklaus, in all their glory, and expertly analyzes the developments in style, equipment, and technique that created the modern game." ; "Originally released in 1948 and revised in 1956 and 1975, Wind's work is the most graceful and thorough history ever published of professional and amateur men's and women's golf in America. From John Reid, the man who introduced the game to this country with three holes carved out of a cow pasture on his New York estate in 1888, to Francis Ouimet's memorable victory in the 1913 U.S. Open, to Bobby Jones' "impregnable quadrilateral" in 1930, to the dawn of the era of Sam Snead, Byron Nelson, and Ben Hogan, Wind covers it all: the personalities, the competition, even swing analyses. This volume introduces the game's first star players, including Bobby Jones, Glenna Collett, Gene Sarazen, and Walter Hagen." ; "Encyclopedic in scope and intimate in detail, The Story of American Golf is both a fitting tribute to the beautiful and fickle game that inspired a national obsession and a testament to Herbert Warren Wind's incomparable talents as a journalist and historian. ; Contents: Sowing the seeds, 1883-1913 -- The apple tree gang -- Before and after St. Andrew's -- C.
