Description:
What is so special about an exceptional achievement? That seems like a strange question, but Malcolm Gladwell is at his best with strange questions. 'Outliers' is a stimulating and astonishing search for the origins of success. And that does not lie, as is often thought, in a special brain or an astonishing talent. Outliers have something special, but that is mainly in what they have experienced: their culture, family, and all the peculiarities with which they have come into contact. The secrets of the software billionaire, the brilliant football player, the genius mathematician and The Beatles are not incomprehensible. In 'Outliers' Malcolm Gladwell shows why some people are successful and others are not.
