Over the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has become the most gifted and influential journalist in America. In The New Yorker, his writings are such must-reads that the magazine charges advertisers significantly more money for ads that run within his articles. With his #1 bestsellers, The Tipping Point , Blink and Outliers , he has reached millions of readers. And now the very best and most famous of his New Yorker pieces are collected in a brilliant and provocative anthology. Among the pieces: his investigation into why there are so many different kinds of mustard but only one kind of ketchup; a surprising assessment of what makes for a safer automobile; a look at how we hire when we can't tell who's right for the job; an examination of machine built to predict hit movies; the reasons why homelessness might be easier to solve than manage; his famous profile of inventor and entrepreneur Ron Popeil; a look at why employers love personality tests; a dissection of Ivy League admissions and who gets in; the saga of the quest to invent the perfect cookie; and a look at hair dye and the hidden history of postwar America.
For the millions of Malcolm Gladwell fans, this anthology is like a greatest hits compilation-a mix tape from America's alpha mind

用另一双眼睛看透这疯狂的世界,感受奇妙的生活和美丽人生。我着实是被此句话吸引了,所以以期待的心情,感受着另一双眼睛所看到的世界。 一定是我头发太长了,所以见识少。所以看的时候会有点费解,果然是不一样的眼睛看到不一样的世界!全书分了三部分,每部分根据真实的事件...
评分格拉德威尔的才华和文笔是无可否认的,但不知道这次中信出版社是否急功近利为了搭异类的畅销快车,连校对翻译都没有就匆忙出版了。 我非常失望,不是对格拉德威尔,而是这本书的翻译,简直是无语了,我觉得找国内字幕组的人员来翻译都要来得精确幽默。
评分What the dog saw,我译做《狗之所见》,乃是Malcolm Gladwell为《纽约客》撰写的专栏文章之合集,计有十九篇。Gladwell是《纽约客》的签约作家,之前出过三本书,即Ourliers、Blink和《引爆点》(The Tipping Point),都有大名,尤其是最后一本。不过我久已不看英文书,就这...
