What is the difference between choking and panicking? Why are there dozens of varieties of mustard-but only one variety of ketchup? What do football players teach us about how to hire teachers? What does hair dye tell us about the history of the 20 th century?
In the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has written three books that have radically changed how we understand our world and ourselves: The Tipping Point ; Blink ; and Outliers. Now, in What the Dog Saw , he brings together, for the first time, the best of his writing from The New Yorker over the same period.
Here is the bittersweet tale of the inventor of the birth control pill, and the dazzling inventions of the pasta sauce pioneer Howard Moscowitz. Gladwell sits with Ron Popeil, the king of the American kitchen, as he sells rotisserie ovens, and divines the secrets of Cesar Millan, the "dog whisperer" who can calm savage animals with the touch of his hand. He explores intelligence tests and ethnic profiling and "hindsight bias" and why it was that everyone in Silicon Valley once tripped over themselves to hire the same college graduate.
"Good writing," Gladwell says in his preface, "does not succeed or fail on the strength of its ability to persuade. It succeeds or fails on the strength of its ability to engage you, to make you think, to give you a glimpse into someone else's head." What the Dog Saw is yet another example of the buoyant spirit and unflagging curiosity that have made Malcolm Gladwell our most brilliant investigator of the hidden extraordinary.
这将是我买Malcolm Gladwell的最后一本书。 我曾经是他的铁杆读者,从他的Tipping Point, Blink, The Power of Thinking without Thinking, 到Outlier,我一本书也没有漏掉过。从最开始对他独到的见地感叹,到慢慢有点厌倦,到这本书彻底的失望。 外国人有个习惯(本来想说“...
评分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...
评分由于之前首次接触到纳西姆•塔勒布的书,于是我百度了一下塔勒布其人,一篇题为《暴富:纳西姆•塔勒布是怎样将不可避免的灾难转化为一种投资战略》的文章吸引了我。这篇文章写在《黑天鹅》一书出版的几年前,以1996年的某一天塔勒布拜访维克多•尼德霍夫开头。尼德霍夫...
评分第一篇 The Pitchman 副题是“Ron Popeil及对美国厨房的征服”。 Ron Popeil的家族企业征服了美国家庭的厨房,他们开发的厨房用具广受欢迎,且新品不断涌现。该企业之所以成功,作者认为,是两种家族特质——Pitchman(姑译为“推销员”)和Tinter(姑译为“小工匠”)—结...
评分1. 暴富 英雄,就是那些做到了我们想去做却没有胆量做的人. 行动之前,请审视下,自己有没有承担最坏结果的能力和勇气. 2.真实的色彩 在世俗的眼光下, 做任何事都需要给出合理的理由. 幸好,"理由"就想"借口", 要想总归是有的. 3约翰洛克的错误 原来避孕药是个男人发明出来的. ...
