Outlining Outliners
 

I’m looking forward to Malcom Gladwell’s most recent publication, Outliners.  It takes into account the human element of how a “Bill Gates” is created. 

 

If you have not read his other books, Blink or Tipping Point, I must highly recommend them.  The audio books are read by the author, and his quiet, persistent voice is compelling when turning statistical numbers into a human story.

Who wouldn't want to read anything from a man with that head of hair?

There, that’s my endorsements.  Any books you think ought to be read?

"The Real Lincoln," by Thomas DiLorenzo, and his follow up book, "Lincoln Unmasked" are well worth reading. But even those fine works pale in comparison to "The Costs of War: America's Pyrrhic Victories," edited by John Denson.
