But recently, he became obsessed by a fundamental matter: how did the people he was writing about learn their outlandish skill, whether it was drawing a nude or baking a sourdough loaf? In \u003ci\u003eThe Real Work\u003c\/i\u003e-the term magicians use for the accumulated craft that makes for a great trick-Gopnik apprentices himself to an artist, a dancer, a boxer, and even a driving instructor (from the DMV), among others, trying his late-middle-age hand at things he assumed were beyond him. He finds that mastering a skill is a process of methodically breaking down and building up, piece by piece-and that true mastery, in any field, requires mastering other people's \u003ci\u003eminds\u003c\/i\u003e. Exuberant and profound, \u003ci\u003eThe Real Work\u003c\/i\u003e is ultimately about \u003ci\u003ewhy\u003c\/i\u003e we relentlessly seek to better ourselves in the first place.\u003cb\u003ePRAISE FOR ADAM GOPNIK\u003c\/b\u003e'A real treat . . .
