Outliers

Outliers - by Malcolm Gladwell 'The Story of Success'   What seemingly arbitrary fact is common amongst the top Canadian Hockey players? Why are all of today's software billionaires born between 1954-1956? Why did Jews dominate to New York legal landscape in the 1980s, when they struggled to get jobs in the prior decade? Why are Asians so good at math?? Outliers looks beyond individual achievement. Gladwell is less concerned with what the people who achieve success are like, and more interested in where they come from, who their parents are, and what opportunities they are afforded.    Join our monthly book club and get bonus episodes: www.patreon.com/whatyouwilllearn Grab a copy of the book here: https://www.bookdepository.com/Outliers-Malcolm-Gladwell/9780316056281/?a_aid=adamasbooks    See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
