Ultralearning
Scott H. Young · 2019
🎙 Narrated by Scott H. Young (author)
76/100
👍 Worth It
Young's ultralearning framework is genuinely practical and backed by case studies beyond his own MIT-in-a-year stunt, though a few reviewers note it repackages learning ideas that have been around for a while rather than breaking new theoretical ground. Worth it for the tactics alone, and he narrates it himself in a clear, workmanlike delivery that fits the how-to nature of the book, even if it's not especially showy.

▶ Listen to a sample
🎙 Narration: fine Author-narrated in a standard unabridged Harper Business production; workmanlike rather than especially showy, but fits the practical, how-to tone of the book.
