Outliers / Malcolm Gladwell / 309 pages

In Malcom Gladwell's book, the "Outliers," he talks about understanding successful people. Instead of focusing on their intelligence, ambition and personality traits, he looks more at the world that surrounds them. Their culture, their family, their generation, and the experiences of their upbringing. Outliers is about those people whose achievements fall outside what we would consider the normal experience.

There is alot of information throughout this book and at first seemed a little far fetched. There is definitely some interesting ideas presented and get you thinking about how and why some people have succeeded and why others have not. The one thing I noticed the most in reading this book, is the number of conversations with people that had read it and the interest in the book for those that have not read it... yet.
