Aug 06, 2016
Outliers: the Story of Success. --- by. --- Malcolm Gladwell. What is success anyway? Is it a job that pays googles of money? Is it a job that is somehow satisfy? Is it a job the confers on you The ability to express yourself freely? Whatever it is it's almost certainly not the result of the efforts of the individual who achieves it. In fact it is Gladwell's contention that success comes as a result of the junture of any number of fortunate factors. Were you born in December or January? What is your IQ? In what year were you born? What is the nature of your demographic cohort ? All of these factors come into play, many more in fact, explain success or failure. Gladwell writes well, this goes without saying. The points he makes are always backed up anecdotally. The book isn't big but it does Pack a big whallop. There are a lot of people who should read this book: those who make decisions in education; airline executives; those in the legal profession and lots of others .given all the insights this book purveys, it is a book that should be read by many.
