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 20th 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 TheNew 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.

評分屬於越來越好看的類型。前麵幾篇真的不是很有意思(雖然Gladwell本人認為什麼都能寫的有意思,但真的不是),但越到後麵的越好看,甚至有點手不釋捲。Gladwell的風格作為這種雜誌稿可能更為適閤,整個結構都更compact,內容也更吸引人,免除瞭書到後麵後勁不足的問題。不錯不錯,繼續學習。

評分說實話齣於我對番茄醬的天生反感,看到那章的時候就看不下去瞭
評分課餘英語閱讀、朗讀、寫作教材,也可以作為瞭解美國生活和文化的窗口。
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“...
評分 評分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. ...
評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...
評分本人读了《小狗看世界》中塔勒布和尼德霍夫的部分,为这样的好书竞被翻译所害,感到十分可惜。 译者的文笔是流畅的,这一点不可否认。但其翻译却是错漏百出,漏译部分(是其看不懂原文?)倒也算了,眼不见心为静吧。但其遍地开花式的错译却令人烦恼。要不是有幸看到原著,几为...
