Daniel’s Reviews > David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants > Status Update

During today's reading of David and Goliath by Malcolm Gladwell, he considers the significance of the inverted-U curve. He shared how it can be broken down into four parts going from improvement, to a lesser intensity, to a lesser intensity, then falling, and reversing that improvement. It is an interesting concept he shared with regard to school class sizes and their ability to function.

During recent reading, Gladwell has been unpacking the question of size and effectiveness. He has done this through the amount of money and parenting and amount of students and classroom performance. It has been interesting to consider the points made and I was personally surprised by some of the reasoning for the U curved abilities for effectiveness in both areas.

David and Goliath is one of the most exciting Bible stories to read and while I am only beginning, I look forward to seeing how Gladwell can relate in this book!
