I am about 75% of the way through the audio version. I started this book so that I could listen to it on the drive for two hours to visit my family this weekend.
I find his points and examples to be fascinating, and especially the part about plane crashes in part two. I was captivated.
I am excited to see haw he brings it all together in the final chapters of his book.

A great book by Malcolm Gladwell. I have enjoyed everything I have read of his so far.
In this book I enjoyed how diverse his topics and examples were yet he still made the same point all around and connected them.
The idea of what a persons culture or background is and how that effects an individuals growth and intelligence was really thought provoking.
I think I liked Talking to Strangers a bit better though.
