Outliers: The Story of Success
In Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell poses a provocative question: why do some people succeed, living remarkably productive and impactful lives, while so many more never reach their potential? He challenges our cherished belief in the "self-made man," and proposes that superstars don't arise out of nowhere, propelled only by genius and talent: "they are invariably the beneficiaries of hidden advantages and extraordinary opportunities and cultural legacies that allow them to learn and work hard and make sense of the world in ways others cannot." Examining the lives of outliers from Mozart to Bill Gates, he builds a convincing case for how successful people rise on a tide of advantages, "some deserved, some not, some earned, some just plain lucky." 2008, Little, Brown and Co.
