The Science of Self-Learning: How to Teach Yourself Anything, Learn More in Less Time, and Direct Your Own Education (Learning how to Learn Book 1)

by Peter Hollins

In self-learning, though, you’re your own instructor. The only personality you have to deal with is your own. You might read the opinions and interpretations of other people, but the final funnel is your own brain. You’re tasked with seeking out relevant material and instilling it in your own head. Because of this, there’s at least a little credence to the idea that sciences are more suitable for self-education than the arts. No matter what branch of science you study—physical science, law, statistics, or economics—there will be a hard set of indisputable data that you’ll have to accept at some point. Those concrete truths are easier to establish than the more flexible theories of the arts. So as a self-learner, the objective course of science study may be more suitable.
