Author, journalist, cultural commentator and intellectual adventurer, Malcolm Gladwell was born in 1963 in England to a Jamacian mother and an English mathematician father. He grew up in Canada and graduated with a degree in history from the University of Toronto in 1984. From 1987 to 1996, he was a reporter for the Washington Post, first as a science writer and then as New York City bureau chief. Since 1996, he has been a staff writer for the New Yorker magazine. His curiosity and breadth of interests are shown in New Yorker articles ranging over a wide array of subjects including early childhood development and the flu, not to mention hair dye, shopping and what it takes to be cool. His phenomenal bestseller The Tipping Point captured the world's attention with its theory that a curiosity small change can have unforeseen effects, and the phrase has become part of our language, used by writers, politicians and business people everywhere to describe cultural trends and strange phenomena.

所谓的一见钟情。我们不了解她们的人生,不清楚她们的过往,初次相识,却也许是我们人生中最无怨无悔的恋爱。偶尔你能遇上一个人,毫无疑问的能够确认这个人就是你苦苦寻觅而不得的那。然而非要让你拿出一个理智的答案,告诉这姑娘为何让我魂牵梦萦,你是一定拿不出来的。...
评分这本是看Malcolm Gladwell的Tipping Point,Outlier之后的第三本书。还是一如既往的喜爱这位作者。如同作者在Afterwords里面说的:“和Tipping Point相比,这本书更像是一个对了解人思维的探险式的尝试……”换句话说,从结构和理论上,这本书有很多粗糙并有待待研磨的部分。但...
评分最近的lie to me播的很火,不知不觉我也追在其中,确实是剧情比较悬疑有点意思,另外更主要的可能是也想透过这个剧对生活有点帮助,起码ms自己是能够学会如何通过微表情来判断是否说谎的,呵呵。表情其实我们每天都能看得见摸得着,却很少严肃地深入研究一下,于是一旦有人对其...

In his landmark bestseller The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell redefined how we understand the world around us. Now, in Blink, he revolutionizes the way we understand the world within. Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant-in the blink of an eye-that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept? Why do some people follow their instincts and win, while others end up stumbling into error? How do our brains really work-in the office, in the classroom, in the kitchen, and in the bedroom? And why are the best decisions often those that are impossible to explain to others?In Blink we meet the psychologist who has learned to predict whether a marriage will last, based on a few minutes of observing a couple; the tennis coach who knows when a player will double-fault before the racket even makes contact with the ball; the antiquities experts who recognize a fake at a glance. Here, too, are great failures of "blink": the election of Warren Harding; "New Coke"; and the shooting of Amadou Diallo by police. Blink reveals that great decision makers aren't those who process the most information or spend the most time deliberating, but those who have perfected the art of "thin-slicing"-filtering the very few factors that matter from an overwhelming number of variables.
Thin-slicing can be great but also be dangerous if not used properly. The take away from this book, we all have all spur at the moment un-concious thinking. Try to develop them as you grow, and use them to find the hidden message.
评分Full of trivia, very readable...
