Since I am currently trying to do skill acquisition along several fronts getting a lit review on this topic is very attractive to me. If you need papers you don’t have access to, please email me as I have university library website access and will gladly search for them.
I’m afraid I can’t since I’ve only read part-way through it. The best I can say is read the first chapter or the table of contents and look at the ones that look interesting.
Oh sorry, I do strongly suspect that deliberate practice is useful for skill improvement from at low to moderate levels, I am just curious what kinds are best and interested in seeing more experimental results (though maybe ericsson does this, I haven’t finished).
(I think you may be underestimating the value of deliberate practice, but if you don’t like that, read the Handbook as well.)
Funnily enough, I just linked someone on IRC about that topic… I plan to start with page 43 of http://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/monographs/2011/RAND_MG1120.pdf and see where the citations lead me.

The Handbook is at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5317066/cambridge-expertise.pdf BTW.
That is a huge document. Could you provide a useful pointer or two inside of it for useful findings for autodidacts?

Thanks!
