David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants
by Malcolm Gladwell
When Do Weaknesses Become Strengths?
What does it take for an underdog to win? Malcolm Gladwell examines situations in which weaknesses are actually strengths and how are perceptions influence how we think of success. Gladwell is always an author that makes you think, and David and Goliath is no exception. I don't think I'll ever think about affirmative action, the Civil Rights movement, or class size the same way again. Despite its exceptional writing, the book was nearly as tightly woven as I've come to expect from Gladwell's bestsellers.
My Rating: 3.5 Stars
