Explanations- Preface
5:39 am in Article, Personal by Faceless Librarian
Sometimes, all we need is a clear explanation. We need someone to take something complex and talk to us about it in a way that we can grow to understand it on some level. We may never achieve expertise, but we walk away more intelligent, and just a tad wiser, than we were before.
I want to talk about a few people who explained things in excellent ways. I don’t look up to many people as "heroes" in the classical sense, but in my book, these are the people who changed my life and, in a very real since, made my life. So over the next few days, I want to tell you about some of my seven favourite explainers and how they affected me. Perhaps, if you have some time, you could seek them out and learn from them too. If nothing else, I can guarantee you that they’re entertaining. So, at the very least, you won’t be bored.
Whether or not I bore you is a completely different matter.
