book review

Outliers

The Story of Success

by Malcolm Gladwell

"Outliers explains what the Beatles and Bill Gates have in common, the extraordinary success of Asians at math, the hidden advantages of star athletes, why all top New York lawyers have the same resume, and the reason you've never heard of the world's smartest man-- all in terms of generation, family, culture, and class."

This is a very intriguing book, very thought provoking.  I didn't necessarily agree with all the points Gladwell makes, but I did enjoy the book.

3 out of 4 stars.
