520    For readers of  Atomic Habits ,  Deep Work , and  Peak  
       comes a game-changing approach to mastering new skills and
       succeeding faster.  For generations, we've been taught 
       there are two ways to succeed—either from talent or 
       practice. In  Decoding Greatness , award-winning social 
       psychologist Ron Friedman illuminates a powerful third 
       path—one that has quietly launched icons in a wide range 
       of fields, from artists, writers, and chefs, to athletes, 
       inventors, and entrepreneurs: reverse engineering.   To 
       reverse engineer is to look beyond what is evident on the 
       surface and find a hidden structure. It's the ability to 
       taste an intoxicating dish and deduce its recipe, to 
       listen to a beautiful song and discern its chord 
       progression, to watch a horror film and grasp its 
       narrative arc.    Using eye-opening examples of top 
       performers—from Agatha Christie to Andy Warhol, Barack 
       Obama to Serena Williams—and groundbreaking research on 
       pattern recognition, skill acquisition, and creative 
       genius, Friedman reveals the staggering power of reverse 
       engineering and teaches you how to harness this vital 
       skill for yourself.   You'll learn how to take apart 
       models you admire, pinpoint precisely what makes them work,
       and apply that knowledge to develop novel ideas, methods, 
       and products that are uniquely your own. Along the way, 
       you'll meet the culinary detective who exposes top-secret 
       recipes, the burglar who can visit a bank and recreate its
       blueprints, and the celebrated artist who reverse 
       engineered his way to the top of his profession without 
       any formal education.   You don't have to be a genius to 
       achieve greatness, but you do need a method for getting 
       there. Bursting with unforgettable stories and actionable 
       strategies,  Decoding Greatness  is an indispensable guide
       to learning from the best, improving your skills, and 
       sparking breakthrough ideas.
