Like many (many) skills and disciplines, teaching oneself is possible, but tutelage under a competent instructor is far more effective. (The qualifier about "competent" is quite critical, however; there are some art faculty out there who are excellent artists but terrible at teaching art.) "Mathematics brought rigor to economics. Unfortunately, it also brought mortis." - Kenneth Boulding
