“If you understand something in only one way, then you don't really understand it at all. The secret of what anything means to us depends on how we've connected it to all other things we know. Well-connected representations let you turn ideas around in your mind, to envision things from many perspectives until you find one that works for you. And that's what we mean by thinking!”
学习的重点是如何将知识点联系起来，以及如何从多个角度去看问题。
Being smart means being able to learn quickly,remember a large amount of information and be able to sort that information in a way that achieves your goals.
学霸的定义是：能够快速学习，记住大量的信息，并且能够整合信息，并最终实现自己的目标。
本书有两大目标：第二，通过整体性学习策略的学习，构造自己的学习模型。第二，学习整体性学习的技巧。（策略更像是如何构建自己的学习系统，技巧是如何更高效的去操作，前者偏重于理论，后者可能更偏实践操作）
然后作者介绍了自己的学习经历（各种超神的故事，这里就不表了）。
That different strategy I called holistic learning. I call it holistic learning because it challenges you to view learning as a comprehensive whole, instead of a list of memorized facts. Smart people tend to make fewer distinctions between branches of knowledge and can easily relate one set of understandings to another.
作者提出了整体性学习的概念。之所以称作是整体学习，是要把学习看作是一个综合性的整体，而不是一些记忆的片段。聪明的人并不会对不同领域的知识划出明确的界限(知识没有界限），并且能够轻易的将其关联起来。
