Bounce shows us that training trumps talent by sharing the science of deliberate practice, the mindset of high performers, and how we can use those tools to become a master of whichever skill we choose.

Matthew Syed is a journalist and former table tennis player. He was the number one English player for several years, and went to the Olympics twice.

Since 1999, he's been a columnist for The Times. Bounce was his first book about how high performers like himself achieve their success.
