A book on skill acquisition and training should be written with great skill. This one is. It is a comprehensive, up-to-date rewrite of an earlier classic by the same authors. I recommend it highly. -David A. Rosenbaum, Distinguished Professor of Psychology, University of California, Riverside, USA This book by leading experts provides a superlative, up-to-date, and lucid summary of research on skill acquisition and training. Along with insightful consideration of general theories and empirical findings, the book offers astute advice concerning training in the real world. -Alice F. Healy, College Professor of Distinction, University of Colorado, Boulder, USA This is the most complete and thorough book I've read on skill acquisition and training. It successfully links basic processes such as perception, attention, and action to the acquisition of specialized skills and the development of training systems. -Jeroen J. G. van Merrienboer, Professor of Learning and Instruction, Maastricht University, the Netherlands
