Read it this past weekend and highly recommend it. Although, if you are not a math or computer nerd some of it may be a little complicated to understand at times. Picked it up and couldn't put it down until I finished.
OT: Mind and Matter - John Urschel book
- Thread starter TheBigUglies
- Start date
I'm smarter than Ranger Dan, so I understood and appreciated the book.
I am about 2/3 through the book and have really appreciated how hard John worked at PSU and now in the book he is at MIT. Very smart, committed guy.
When at PSU he would wake up most mornings at 5:00 am to get 2 hours of math in before he would lift....and then go to the rest of his classes. The math classes that he took often times he had 1/2 of the pre-requisites but he wanted to study a certain topic or work with a certain teacher and so he would take the class and get the A. He was chosen to lead the Math Majors into the graduating ceremony.......true Renaisance Guy.
