I have always considered myself a "generalist" and a conceptual thinker (I do not desire to do the math, but I do want if possible to conceptually understand the big picture and the implications of the math) as I am a curious dabbler in a variety of fields with no credentialed expertise though mainly in American history and literature and I am the lifelong undergraduate. It is good that finally someone recognizes the value of the generalist. I am a believer totally in expertise and specialization, yet my heart is with the generalist. At the very least, generalists are the best conversationalists. This is the book that I have waiting for all my life. I contain multitudes.
