Description: Every human is born with multifarious potential. Why then do parents schools and employers insist that we restrict our many talents and interests; that we 'specialise in just one? We've been sold a myth that to 'specialise is the only way to pursue truth identity or even a livelihood. Yet specialisation is nothing but an outdated system that fosters ignorance exploitation and disillusionment and thwarts creativity opportunity and progress. Following a series of exchanges with the world's greatest historians futurists philosophers and scientists Waqas Ahmed has weaved together a narrative of history and a vision for the future that seeks to disrupt this prevailing system of unwarranted hyper - specialisation. In The Polymath Waqas shows us that there is another way of thinking and being. Through an approach that is both philosophical and practical he sets out a cognitive journey towards reclaiming your innate polymathic state. Going further he proposes nothing less than a cultural revolution in our education and professional structures whereby everyone is encouraged to express themselves in multiple ways and fulfil their many - sided potential. Not only does this enhance individual fulfilment but in doing so facilitates a conscious and creative society that is both highly motivated and well equipped to address the complexity of 21st century challenges.
