Then read this book
Outliers was a chance pickup at the airport with the last $10 left. I had heard about the writer and the books written earlier and morever the book didnt seem too volumnious and the print was good too. That is the physical part.
The content - Simply out of the world. Extremely thought provoking and a must read for every parent who wants to get the best out of his offsprings. Very well written, with easy to understand language and lot of examples and helps to relate to our own experiences unlike many other books which are on a different plain sometimes.
What seems to benefit the author the most while writing on the subject are his capacity for research into mundane things that we see but cannot look beyond the visible and his own personal history and experiences. The book is very practical without calling itself it a DIY and should be implemented who is trying to find his own key to success. After all, that is why we read books, is'nt it?
No book I have read so far has been like this one and I am told Malcolm G's other books are also unique. After I put down the book (the fastest read and absorbed in my life) I have now bought the previous one, "BLINK". Can't wait to read it !!!
