Mindshift reveals how we can overcome stereotypes and preconceived ideas about what is possible for us to learn and become—regardless of age.

In an age when we are constantly being asked to retrain and reinvent ourselves, to adapt to new technologies and changing industries, this book assuages our fears and inspires us with a sense of possibility.

关于思维方式和职业生涯转换的书，提到了中国的孙逸仙由医生转成了革命家，想起了弃医从文的鲁迅，也想起了德国的史怀哲由音乐家转成医生。人生真是奇妙，冒险，自我塑造成形，激动心灵的旅程。
