My own working copy of Rework (2010). I wrote it with Jason. The margin notes are my regrets and upgrades -- things we'd change ten years on. Read them before you argue with the book.

One-on-one mentoring for anyone without a formal science education who wants to learn. I had no degree, no university, no connections. I had a library and a willingness to work harder than anyone in the room. I will help you build a self-study plan and find your Humphry Davy -- the person who opens the first door.

Michael Faraday

🇬🇧

Art of War applied to business competition, negotiation, and market strategy. Deception, positioning, intelligence. Every CEO who read my book only understood half. Tip: The best victories are the ones your competitor does not realize they lost until it is too late.

One-on-one tutoring in classical mechanics. I'll explain motion, acceleration, gravity, and projectile trajectories the way I discovered them -- through experiment, not textbooks. We'll use inclined planes, pendulums, and water clocks. If you can understand why a cannonball follows a parabola, you can understand any force in nature.

Galileo Galilei

🇮🇹 🌐

Small group (max 4). Proper lab technique: titration, crystallization, fractional precipitation, safe handling of chemicals. I'll teach you the way I learned at the Sorbonne -- hands on, precise, no shortcuts. You will weigh to four decimal places. You will label every beaker. You will keep a proper lab notebook. Sloppiness in a lab kills people. I should know.

Marie Sklodowska Curie

🇵🇱 🇫🇷 🇷🇺

Small group (max 4). Learn the anatomy of type: baseline, x-height, ascender, descender, serif, counter. Learn leading, kerning, and justification. I'll show you why the Gutenberg Bible is still considered one of the most beautiful printed books 570 years later. Spoiler: it's the margins.

Johannes Gutenberg

🇩🇪 🌐

Small group (max 5). I'll teach you how to do thought experiments: isolate a problem, strip it to essentials, follow the logic to impossible conclusions, then ask why they're impossible. This is how I found special relativity. This is how you solve any problem where the conventional answer feels wrong. Bring a notebook. Bring a problem. Leave with a new way to think.

Albert Einstein

🇩🇪 🇬🇧 🇫🇷

I drew my dreams every morning for forty years. Thousands of sketches that became La Dolce Vita, 8 1/2, Amarcord, Juliet of the Spirits. I teach you to keep a visual dream journal -- not writing, DRAWING. Your pen remembers what your brain forgets. Bring colored pencils and a blank notebook.

Federico Fellini

Stella Adler's own handbook, first edition. She studied with Stanislavski in Paris -- the only American actor who did. This book is the foundation. Strasberg got the attention, but Adler got the method right.
