Outliers,《異類:不一樣的成功啓示錄》
The Tipping Point,《引爆點》
In this wide-ranging third installment of Malcolm Gladwell's exploration of how people and social phenomena work, the New Yorker journalist takes a close look at what constitutes high levels of success. That is, what makes people at the top of their respective fields get there? As we've come to expect from Gladwell's previous books, the answer to the question is a bit complicated.
He says that upbringing, culture and even random luck have something to with success, but there is another important quality that anyone can control. Two chapters are dedicated to the "revelation" that IQ is only a baseline quality and success has little to nothing to do with having a high IQ or a low IQ. Rather, success is substantially a product of cultivating a high degree of what Robert Sternberg calls "practical intelligence" or what most refer to as "emotional intelligence."
Gladwell uses the example of Nobel laureates coming from unknown schools as often as ivy league schools. At this level of mastery IQ is no longer a factor. Success has little to do with where you were educated and everything to do with your level of practical/emotional intelligence and willingness to put in the 10,000 hours of practice required to reach mastery of your field.
All in all, it's an interesting read that isn't too heady and goes by pretty quickly, as the interesting anecdotes are what you would expect from Gladwell.
必须承认,在我读初高中的时候,我看过以下几本书:《西点军校》、《自励》、《谁动了我的奶酪》、《我行你也行》、《小中见大》等等。这些书看名字就知道属于图书市场上一股最妖邪的力量—心灵鸡汤,其中的内容我一点都想不起来。它们中的绝大部分都被我扔掉了,只保留了《我...
評分这是一本关于“成功学”的书,确实成功学中的异类!作者对成功途径的寻找在百万成功学中寻找到了一个外在的突破:成功并不仅仅只是单凭个人努力就可以实现的。 作者提到了一个目前广为人知的关键:10000小时的精细化训练和努力。在这一点上,作者提到比尔盖茨的例子,提到夹克...
評分马普托卡多索酒店旁边有个咖啡馆,就在山顶上面对着大海和马普托河。海边不时有大轮船拉着汽笛经过。下午和两个同事坐在咖啡馆前大树下看书,要上一瓶tonic水躺在长椅上,周围小孩子跑来跑去。就在那里我读完了这本书,期间一直保持着愉快的心情。 开车回kaya k...
評分Malcolm Gladwell 是个很会写书的,记者。我感觉他一共就写过三本书:The Tipping Point, Blink,和 Outliers。这三本书的共同特点是一本比一本流行,一出来就成为热门话题。 Outliers 这本书,我们小镇(一共才不到十万人口)的公共图书馆一次就买了8本,因为太热门,借阅一...
