October 20 - Malcolm Gladwell, the genius behind The Tipping Point, Blink, and Outliers, is one of the most gifted and influential journalists in America. Now, the very best and most famous of his New Yorker pieces are collected in this anthology, What The Dog Saw. Among the pieces: his investigation into why there are so many varieties of mustard, but only one kind of ketchup; a surprising assessment of what makes for a safer automobile; a look at how we hire when we can’t tell who’s right for the job; an examination of machine built to predict hit movies; a dissection of Ivy League admissions and who gets in; the saga of the quest to invent the perfect cookie; and a look at hair dye and the hidden history of postwar America.
For the millions of Malcolm Gladwell fans, this anthology is like a greatest hits compilation - a mix tape from America’s alpha mind.
