Book 20: David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants

This was a guilty pleasure read for me. Read by Malcolm Gladwell himself! He's Canadian! It includes a story from Manitoba (albeit a rather gruesome one)! Really, what's not to love?




Oh, Malcolm Gladwell, how I wanted to embrace your "insight porn."

Unfortunately, I have come to the conclusion that most stories can't possibly be as simple (or even complicatedly tidy) as Gladwell makes them sound. But the stories are interesting, and I do feel like I have learned something.
