From the publisher: "Malcolm Gladwell explores what sets high achievers apart—from Bill Gates to the Beatles. He asks the question: what makes high-achievers different? His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. Brilliant and entertaining, Outliers is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate."

I love Malcolm Gladwell's writing and this is no exception with its interesting takes on dyslexia, academia, wealth, and more.

From the publisher: "In the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has written three books that have radically changed how we understand our world and ourselves: The Tipping Point; Blink; and Outliers. Now, in What the Dog Saw, he brings together, for the first time, the best of his writing from The New Yorker over the same period." Add Audible narration for $12.99.

From the publisher: "Malcolm Gladwell, author of the bestseller Outliers, offers a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers--and why they often go wrong. How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to each other that isn't true? Talking to Strangers is a classically Gladwellian intellectual adventure, a challenging and controversial excursion through history, psychology, and scandals taken straight from the news. Malcolm Gladwell has written a gripping guidebook for troubled times."
