Through a series of encounters and misunderstandings - from history, psychology and infamous legal cases - Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual adventure into the darker side of human nature, where strangers are never simple and misreading them can have disastrous consequences.
No one challenges our shared assumptions like Malcolm Gladwell. Here he uses stories of deceit and fatal errors to cast doubt on our strategies for dealing with the unknown, inviting us to rethink our thinking in these troubled times.

Malcolm Gladwell is my favorite Author

MG’s latest book is brilliant - the audible version has set the benchmark in audio books - exquisitely produced and performed - MG’s thesis is compelling - ‘when talking to strangers, exercise restraint and humility’

Kind of surprised to see there is an artist (Andy Leek) with a project Notes to Strangers and Gladwell with his book Talking to Strangers and that neither of them mentions that the concept behind each (in fact the most perfect mix of the two) was already approached by an off Venice Biennale artist over 20 years ago. Talking to strangers by Jill Mercedes of which only a very few copies seem to be on offer.

One word, brilliant.
-
Very interesting point of view...I need to read this book🤔
-
In talking to "us"...as strangers...he convinces us to buy his book...of the fairly obvious...which I'm ok with...because I like MG. He's quite convincing...and that's ok.

Brilliant.
