The author's passion for learning is clear from the off, and I especially enjoyed his conclusion that at the end of his ultralearning projects he always found that he had barely scratched the surface of the topic in question. In terms of practical advice, the focus on "metalearning" was insightful and I enjoyed the brief exploration of the Polgar family and what it takes to "raise a genius". The advice on language learning is also largely sound (based on my own experience). Overall a worthwhile and enjoyable read.
