ApparentParadox reviewed First Learn To Practice by Tom Heany
A lot of good points
4 stars
I think that this book will benefit me a lot, with changing my thinking about how I practice. I especially liked his distinction between "learning" and "practicing". I learned the scales using my brain very quickly, but I practice the scales to build in the muscle movements.
The author is a bit pedantic at times (like, always practicing at the same time and making a huge ritual about it), but overall I found his approach good.
