In the past decade, Malcolm Gladwell has written three books that have radically changed how we understand our world and ourselves: The Tipping Point; Blink; and Outliers. Now, in What the Dog Saw, he brings together, for the first time, the best of his writing from TheNew Yorker over the same period.

Here is the bittersweet tale of the inventor of the birth control pill, and the dazzling inventions of the pasta sauce pioneer Howard Moscowitz. Gladwell sits with Ron Popeil, the king of the American kitchen, as he sells rotisserie ovens, and divines the secrets of Cesar Millan, the "dog whisperer" who can calm savage animals with the touch of his hand. He explores intelligence tests and ethnic profiling and "hindsight bias" and why it was that everyone in Silicon Valley once tripped over themselves to hire the same college graduate.

"Good writing," Gladwell says in his preface, "does not succeed or fail on the strength of its ability to persuade. It succeeds or fails on the strength of its ability to engage you, to make you think, to give you a glimpse into someone else's head."What the Dog Saw is yet another example of the buoyant spirit and unflagging curiosity that have made Malcolm Gladwell our most brilliant investigator of the hidden extraordinary.]]> 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2009 2613 0786887176 9780786887170 13 <![CDATA[Unleashing the Ideavirus]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1161109180m/2613.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1161109180s/2613.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2613.Unleashing_the_Ideavirus 3.89 194 The book that sparked a marketing revolution.

"This is a subversive book. It says that the marketer is not -- and ought not to be -- at the center of successful marketing. The customer should be. Are you ready for that?" --From the Foreword by Malcolm Gladwell, author of The Tipping Point.

Counter to traditional marketing wisdom, which tries to count, measure, and manipulate the spread of information, Seth Godin argues that the information can spread most effectively from customer to customer, rather than from business to customer. Godin calls this powerful customer-to- customer dialogue the ideavirus, and cheerfully eggs marketers on to create an environment where their ideas can replicate and spread.

In lively, detail, Godin looks at the ways companies such as PayPal, Hotmail, GeoCities, even Volkswagen have successfully launched ideaviruses. He offers a "recipe" for creating your own ideavirus, identifies the key factors in the successful spread of an ideavirus (powerful sneezers, hives, a clear vector, a smooth, friction-free transmission), and shows how any business, large or small, can use ideavirus marketing to succeed in a world that just doesn't want to hear it anymore from the traditional marketers.

Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant-in the blink of an eye-that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept? How do our brains really work-in the office, in the classroom, in the kitchen, and in the bedroom? And why are the best decisions often those that are impossible to explain to others? Blink reveals that great decision makers aren't those who process the most information or spend the most time deliberating, but those who have perfected the art of "thin-slicing"-filtering the very few factors that matter from an overwhelming number of variables.</br></br></br></br> OUTLIERS: In this stunning audiobook, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers"-the best and the brightest, the most famous and the most successful. He asks the question: what makes high-achievers different? His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing. Along the way he explains the secrets of software billionaires, what it takes to be a great soccer player, why Asians are good at math, and what made the Beatles the greatest rock band. Brilliant and entertaining, OUTLIERS is a landmark work that will simultaneously delight and illuminate.]]> 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2010 7118874 0316086150 9780316086158 0 <![CDATA[Theories, Predictions, and Diagnoses]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7118874-theories-predictions-and-diagnoses 0.0 0 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2009 7091202 0316086142 9780316086141 0 <![CDATA[Obsessives, Pioneers, and Other Varieties of Minor Genius]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7091202-obsessives-pioneers-and-other-varieties-of-minor-genius 0.0 0 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2009 3599120 1594838070 9781594838071 0 <![CDATA[Gladwell Box Set]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3599120.Gladwell_Box_Set 0.0 0 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2006 7404853 9113021958 9789113021959 0 <![CDATA[Framgångsfaktorn som skapar vinnarna]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1261699999m/7404853.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1261699999s/7404853.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7404853-framg-ngsfaktorn-som-skapar-vinnarna 0.0 0 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2009 7118873 0316086185 9780316086189 0 <![CDATA[Personality, Character, and Intelligence]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7118873-personality-character-and-intelligence 0.0 0 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2009 7377210 0345513118 9780345513113 0 <![CDATA[The Book of Basketball]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7377210-the-book-of-basketball 0.0 0 9941 3.95 1054 208 1439 3.73 89138 11651 2009 6949743 0740784900 9780740784903 0 <![CDATA[On the Money: The Economy in Cartoons, 1925-2009]]> http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6949743-on-the-money 0.0 0 The New Yorker has been at the forefront of social commentary since it was first published in 1925.
