Chapter Four: David Boies
A good general introduction to the

Proust and the Squid: The Story and
Science of the Reading Brain (Harper,

The Bjorks have written widely and
brilliantly on the subject of desirable
difficulty. Here’s a good summary of
their work: Elizabeth Bjork and Robert
Bjork, “Making Things Hard on
Yourself, But in a Good Way: Creating
Desirable Difficulties to Enhance
Learning,” Psychology and the Real
World, M. A. Gernsbacher et al., eds.
(Worth Publishers, 2011), ch. 5.
