Favorite Authors: Malcolm Gladwell
I don’t think I’ve ever had so much fun learning so much.
Malcolm Gladwell is more than just a good writer or thinker or teacher.
His power lies beyond his delightful wit or his challenging insights.
The joy and significance of Malcolm Gladwell is in the different vantage points to which he climbs and looks at a myriad of issues.
He is working through perspectives that most of us don’t even consider.
I am amazed at how often I catch myself being caught off guard by my own unexamined assumptions.
Instead of announcing the conclusions of his research like most authors, Gladwell seems more interested in getting us to think for ourselves.
He pokes, uncovers, juxtaposes, teases, and challenges.
Besides being thoroughly entertained, I have become a better thinker after reading anything by Gladwell. I think you will too.
